Buying Guide

Select the right protection level

Choose gowns rated for the exposure risk you expect—non-woven disposable gowns provide barrier protection for routine isolation, while higher liquid-resistant coatings are better for splash-prone tasks

Prioritize proper fit and coverage

Gowns that list knee-length sizing and offer secure closures help maintain coverage during movement; check available sizes like XL if staff require larger fits

Check material and latex content

Latex-free, non-woven materials reduce allergy risk for staff and patients; confirm material type and latex-free labeling when selecting gowns

Consider disposable vs. reusable

Disposable gowns simplify infection control and are sold in multi-count packs for facility rotation, while reusable gowns require laundering and higher upfront cost but can lower long-term waste

Evaluate pack size and cost per use

Facilities often buy multi-count packs to simplify inventory; calculate cost per gown from pack pricing and factor in storage and disposal costs for disposables
