Fabrics for Dirty Jobs

  • Author(s) / Creator(s)
  • Emergency room workers, sanitation workers, road construction crews, and plumbers—all these “dirty” jobs now have improved protective clothing to keep workers safe from hazards such as blood, oil, gas, and petrochemicals, among others. The fabrics used for protective clothing and personal protective equipment (PPE) have evolved and become more efficient over time. The technological boom that began in the nineties helped
    expand the range of protective textiles available, and this expansion continues today.
