Disposable lab coats: No more static cling!
Lab Safety Advisor, March 14, 2008
Disposable coats for the lab have been around since the early 1990s.The early coats were thick and hot and unisex in sizing. During the dry season static electricity would build up in them and wreak havoc with equipment and computers. Now there are coats made of a super antistatic material that is equal to clean room cloth garments and will prevent static buildup, which is so dangerous in a laboratory. For more information, contact your disposable lab coat vendor and ask for coats made with the antistatic material.
