First in, best dressed: a look at coveralls with integrated goggles

摘要

Let's start with what Para 7 of Annex-1 has to say about the personnel and garment qualification and also its relevance with the article: Para 7.13 and 7.15 specifically talks about garments and its specification to be compliant with the cleanroom use. For example, in 7.15-" Every operator entering grade B or A areas should gown into clean, sterilised protective garments (including eye coverings and masks) of an appropriate size at each entry. The maximum period for which the sterilised gown may be worn before replacement during a shift should be defined as part of the garment qualification." Further, para 7.13 describes the gowning requirements as per each grade of cleanroom. It says the operator in Grade A and B must wear undergarment under their sterile suits before entering the cleanroom. It highlights the use of sterile headgear to cover all hair (incl. facial hair) and sterile facemask together with sterile eye coverings (e.g. goggles) to cover all facial skin and prevent the shedding of droplets and particles. Lastly, there's something unique about the garment folding process also so that the operator can don the gown without contacting the outer surface of the garment and touching the floor.
