basan cuts from the right cloth

basan has extended its range of intermediate clothing using a new microfibre to meet growing demands on cleanroom clothing.

When combined with appropriate outer clothing, this intermediate clothing is suited for use in ISO 1 cleanroom conditions. This is made possible by the special construction of the material: the microfibres make it possible to produce a very close weave that minimises the particulate emission from the wearer. In addition to the good cleanroom performance, the microfibre material is said tooffer a high level of physical comfort to the wearer. The high filtration characteristics are combined with a soft, silk-like feel, 'comfortable breathability' and light weight properties. The material is also resistant to scuffing, has an antimicrobial finish, and includes integral carbon fibres that provide antistatic properties. The clothing consists of a long-sleeved shirt with sealing cuffs and an all-round collar; and trousers with elasticised waistband and further sealing cuffs at the ankles. basan has also extended its Adams/Ecolab range of disinfection products with the addition of a new disinfection product for cleanrooms class A/B, or ISO 5. Acticlens – a sporicide cleaning and disinfection product based on peracetic acid and in powder form – is suitable for spore disinfection (as required by the FDA) and to extend the rotation of active agents required in both European and FDA guidelines. In a concentration of 2% it is approved as a bactericide (EN 1276), fungicide (EN 1650) and sporicide (EN 13704).
