Booties for the Win
Going to work in a sanitary environment such as a food processing facility requires special personal protective equipment (PPE) such as disposable shoe covers. Shoe covers, or booties, are an important piece in the hygiene and sanitation process since shoes transfer so many germs and contaminants. At Total Source Manufacturing, we’ve discovered these benefits for cleanrooms, medical facilities, and food processing plants that regularly use booties.
Reduce the spread of pathogens
The priority in using shoe covers is to cover and to contain pathogens traveling on the bottoms of shoes before employees enter a sanitary space such as a cleanroom. After the employee has donned the booties, hands should be washed since it is likely the bottoms of the shoes were touched.
Conversely, shoe covers can also keep contaminants from the workplace from spreading beyond the doffing station. Employees do not need to worry about chemicals or pathogens traveling home with them after they throw away their shoe covers and wash their hands.
Improve safety with skid-free sole
Unlike glossy plastic booties that tend to cause slip-and-fall accidents, we offer shoe covers with skid-free soles such as the Polylatex – Diamond Grip, the Advantage I Shoe Covers (skid-free sole), and the Advantage I Conductive Shoe Covers (skid-free sole).
Enjoy ease-of-use
Our shoe covers come in universal and extra-large sizes with elastic ankle bands to fit over most shoes. They can be donned in seconds, especially if a bench is provided for workers’ safety and ease in putting on their shoe covers. When incorporated into a proper donning/doffing protocol, shoe covers provide excellent coverage in a short amount of time.
Add-on conductive sole
Finally, for electrostatic dissipative environments, we offer conductive shoe covers or a strap-on heel grounder. In sensitive environments, these shoe covers can make all the difference. Try our regular sole Advantage I Conductive Shoe Covers or amp up the safety with the Advantage I Conductive Shoe Covers (skid-free sole).
