5 Flat Packed Aprons Aprons Flat-packed aprons are typically lower cost compared to on-the-roll versions, but may not dispense as easily, sometimes leading to waste as multiple aprons are accidentally pulled out. Aprons play an important role in the implementation of Standard Precautions within the healthcare environment by protecting wearers from direct contact with solids or liquids during medical procedures or cleaning tasks. A key part of infection control is ensuring that aprons are properly stored before use, so they do not gather dust: a potential breeding ground for infection. Aprons on a Roll and Healthgard disposable polythene aprons with halter neck and waist ties, are supplied on rolls for maximum convenience and minimal space use. Each roll is individually wrapped for product protection and ease of insertion into the wall mountable dispenser. These aprons are available in three lengths. 8 INNER INNER 818 Clear Roll of Roll of 93 8 Roll of 933 Green 84 Green Roll of 934 Red 86 Red Roll of 935 Yellow 88 Yellow Roll of 936 Pink 830 Pink Roll of Roll of Roll of INNER INNER PSCRP974W/ 107 cm (4") Roll of PSCRP974W 107 cm (4") PSCRP974B/ 107 cm (4") Roll of PSCRP974B 107 cm (4") 9 9
