We offer disposable Standard Surgical Gowns made here in England, Shropshire

With some 20 major healthcare bodies appealing to the Prime Minister for better personal protection against coronavirus, Hospital Direct wants to remind everyone that the company manufactures its own standard surgical gowns here in the UK.

Made at our premises in Shropshire, meaning there are no long lead-in times for orders, the range of disposable non-sterile gowns have set in sleeves, adjustable neck sizes and welded seams in areas most at risk of exposure.

The surgical (non-sterile) gowns are used for procedures that do not require a sterile product and offer protection with low-risk fluid where simple aprons do not offer enough coverage or protection.

Non-sterile gowns are mainly used in barrier nursing, intended to prevent the transmission of infective agents between patients and clinical staff during clinical and surgical procedures within a hospital or community setting.

 

There are two main levels of surgical gown, standard and high performance, determined by the liquid penetration properties for critical areas including front and seams.

The standard gown can be ordered on our website but if you need the impervious/high performance Surgical Gowns, please inquire, and contact us at www.hospitaldirect.co.uk/contact-us.
