Was dubious about buying, a bag, of the beeswift mp1 gloves, as I was actually looking for an alternate brand, I've had gloves before that were all bundled together, where the rubber was too hard and the material like an old rope, the company sent them out really fast delivery, individually wrapped, premium gloves, really happy, top drawer, as these will be stored in the garage, no damp or spider issues, big thanks to George @ gloves & stuff.

Description
Serious Barrier Protection Without Turning Your Legs Into a Sauna
DuPont's Tyvek 500 overboots deliver Category III chemical protection that actually breathes. Knee-length coverage with a slip-retardant sole, designed for pharmaceutical handling, asbestos remediation, and chemical work where particle barriers matter. The flash spun high-density polyethylene fabric blocks particles down to 1 micron whilst letting air and water vapour escape. Your legs stay protected without feeling like they're wrapped in cling film.
Key Features:
-
Type PB [6-B] Chemical Protection: Certified to Regulation (EU) 2016/425 Category III as partial body chemical protective clothing. Provides an excellent barrier against fine particles, fibres, and water-based liquids.
-
EN 14126 Infective Agent Barrier: Meets standards for protection against biological hazards. Essential for pharmaceutical environments, laboratory work, and clean-up operations involving biological risks.
-
Breathable Yet Protective: Tyvek 500 fabric is permeable to air and water vapour but repels water-based liquids and aerosols. Blocks particles down to 1 micron in size. Comfortable enough for extended wear during lead abatement or spray painting jobs.
-
Slip-Retardant Sole: Stitched sole provides improved traction on smooth surfaces. Note that the sole isn't liquid-tight, and you'll need appropriate outer footwear over these for adequate durability and slip resistance.
-
Secure Fit System: Elasticated top with fixation ties keeps the overboot snug over work boots or shoes. Knee-length coverage protects lower legs during clean-up and maintenance operations.
-
Antistatic Treatment: EN 1149-1 compliant on both sides. Important note for Ex-Zone workers: the boot cover may isolate you from grounding through shoes, so additional grounding measures are required.
-
10-Year Shelf Life: One-size white overboots with stitched internal seams. Bulk packed 200 units per box. Not flame resistant, so keep away from heat, sparks, or potentially flammable environments.
DuPont's Tyvek 500 overboots are designed as partial body protection accessories. Wear them with appropriate chemical resistant PPE based on your hazard assessment. The combination of particle barrier protection and breathability makes these overboots stand out for pharmaceutical, chemical, and remediation work. Order now from Glovesnstuff.
