5 Aprons Flat Packed 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 tandard 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.
