Personal protective equipment and medical consumables

The Role of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) in Health

In hospital environments, clinics, and laboratories where biological risks are high, protecting staff and patients from cross-contamination is a primary concern. Personal protective equipment (PPE) is the most fundamental tool for preventing infection spread, protecting sterile fields, and creating safe working conditions.

Disposable or reusable barrier products such as surgical gowns, masks, protective coveralls, caps, and shoe covers are produced from special filtration fabrics that block the transmission of microorganisms and fluids.

Quality and Certification in Medical Consumables

The following standards should be sought in the procurement of personal protective and medical consumables:

  • EN 13795 Standard: Documents the resistance of surgical gowns and drapes to fluid penetration and microbial transmission.
  • CE Compliance: Confirms that the product complies with the European Union's health, safety, and environmental protection standards.
  • ISO 13485 Certificate: Demonstrates that the manufacturer applies a quality management system appropriate for medical devices and consumables.
