Look great and stay safe in a disposable lab gown

If you work in a hospital or healthcare facility, it is always a good idea to keep a supply of disposable lab gowns on hand, whether you’re working in the patient care areas or the lab. These traditional looking lab gowns will outlast other types of cotton or poly cotton blend coats, plus they offer a wide range of additional safety features.

One of the biggest issues with any type of lab coat, that’s worn in the lab or while working with patients, is that the gown can become contaminated. When body fluids, medications, chemicals or liquid is spilled on the gown, the fabric will absorb it. These absorbed liquids will then travel around with you when you are interacting with patients and others, possibly providing opportunity for contamination. Since it really isn’t practical to be changing your coat all the time, using a disposable lab gown is really the best possible option.

Disposable lab gowns are just as practically designed as the more traditional cotton and poly cotton coats. They feature button closure down the front, as well as a walking slit in the back, which allows for easy movement even if you want to leave the coat closed while you’re walking / moving around. 

In addition most disposable lab gowns also offer Velcro cuffs and a fold up collar shield to more effectively restrict the chance of any contamination touching your skin or clothing while the gown is closed.


Supply doctor has a wide range of disposables to choose from, including lightweight, breathable disposable lab gowns. This is an important aspect in a busy hospital or healthcare setting where you may be walking through a variety of temperatures as you travel from area to area.
