Plastic shoe covers are essential for any medical practice or research facility. Made from polyethylene, plastic covers have a good resistance to liquid an water. Plastic covers can keep shoes clean and dry, which will prolong the life of your shoes and protect them from damage. These covers also protect the environment from dirt, grime, pollen, dust, and airborne microbes. This is especially important in a sterile environment or a cleanroom. Cleanrooms are rooms where the atmosphere is carefully controlled to keep out contaminants, or to keep contaminants at certain levels.

Polyethylene is a non-woven material. It is very durable and does not rip or tear easily. Shoe covers come oversized to fit any shoe or boot. Plastic shoe protectors also have elastic bands to guarantee they fit against your ankle snugly and securely. These covers are non-static. Because they lack static electricity, dust and other particles will not cling to the material. This is an absolutely necessary factor in helping to prevent the contamination of cleanrooms and other sensitive areas. In fact, this property makes these covers excellent for many computer manufacturing rooms since the internal parts and drives are so sensitive to dust particles.

Plastic covers are not just suitable for medical environments. These shoe covers can be worn to protect shoes from rain or harsh weather conditions. Snow, ice, sludge, and salt can damage leather or dress sues. Plastic covers can also be used to protect the carpeting in areas that receive a high amount of foot traffic.
