SilPure is the next generation in personal protection.
Our Lab Coats are not only manufactured using the finest poly cotton fabric, but our fabric is treated with SilPure. SilPure is ionized silver that is woven into textiles during the manufacturing process, resulting in fabric with antibacterial and antimicrobial properties. Lab Coats treated with SilPure stay cleaner and fresher since SilPure kills odor-causing bacteria. Silpure treated Lab Coats also help to reduce the risk of cross contamination. Since SilPure is a treatment and not a coating, it can not be washed away and will remain effective for the life of the garment.
The lab coats come in both knee (41'') or staff (39'') length and have seams that are safety stiched and stress points that are reinforced, to ensure durability. Our garments are softer, stronger, and more opaque than the leading competition. You get all this, plus the protection of SilPure, for just about what you're paying now for ordinary lab coats. As with all Defend products, SilPure treated Lab Coats come with a 100% satisfaction guarantee.

NOTE: This list is only intended to give examples of the many types of micro-organisms that the Silpure products have been shown to inhibit in laboratory testing. The organisms used in the testing are those for which standardized cultures are freely available for laboratory study. Although some of these organisms are associated with pathogenic conditions, no health claims are made or implied concerning Silpure products. Silpure products are only intended to confer antimicrobial protection to treated articles, not to protect the people who are using them.
