Personal protective equipment (PPE) is a critical component of workplace health and safety. Failing to don the appropriate protective gear can result in small nicks and abrasions if you"re lucky, and serious or potentially life-threatening accidents like chemical burns or severe eye injuries if you"re not. In many cases, PPE needs to be tough and durable to protect the wearer. In other situations, the protective clothing may get so dirty or damaged that it will be rendered useless. Still others call for fresh, clean protective clothing each time. The latter two situations are where disposable PPE comes into play.

Protective clothing is designed to protect the wearer’s body from injury or infection. The hazards addressed by protective equipment include physical, electrical, heat, chemicals, biohazards, and airborne particulate matter. Protective equipment may be worn for job-related occupational safety and healthpurposes, as well as for sports and other recreational activities. Protective clothing is to reduce employee exposure to hazards when engineering controls and administrative controls are not feasible or effective to reduce these risks to acceptable levels. Protective clothing is needed when there are hazards present. PPE has the serious limitation that it does not eliminate the hazard at the source and may result in employees being exposed to the hazard if the equipment fails.
