SCILABUB Cryogenic Apron for Ultra Cold

Scilabub Frosters Aprons have been specially developed to provide optimum protection for torso and upper legs against the effects of spills and splashes of cryogenic material. They are also very useful for other cold situations such as with freezers, cold rooms, ‘dry ice’ and microtomes.

Thermal insulation is given by a polyolefin/polyester micro-fibre middle layer. The inner layer is of cotton for comfort. Frosters aprons are fitted with quick release clips at both neck and waist and our adjustable straps give a comfortable fit. 

This apron series satisfies the basic requirements of the PPE Directive in being innocuous/free from nuisance factors, ergonomic and breathable. 

The tests were made on and apply to unwashed aprons. However, the aprons may be hand or machined washed in water at 40° C. Use of biological detergents, detergents containing softeners, fabric conditioners should be avoided. Do not bleach. Thoroughly rinse and tumble dry or drip dry. If repeated washing diminishes the outer proofing, the aprons may be re-proofed with a proprietary silicone or fluorocarbon spray. Avoid contact with alcohol based products. Although Frosters have superb insulation, they are unsuitable for use at high temperatures. However, Scilabub has a complementary range of non-asbestos gloves/aprons for use up to 370° C.
