Fisherbrand Bouffant Cap White 24 in. Case of 2000 Caps

Fisherbrand™ Disposable Polypropylene Bouffant Caps, White, 24-inch (12-897-0022) – Case of 2,000

The Fisherbrand™ 12-897-0022 is a premium cleanroom and general industrial disposable protective head covering engineered to ensure strict contamination control across laboratory, pharmaceutical, bioprocessing, and clinical environments. Fabricated from a lightweight, breathable spunbond polypropylene matrix, this 24-inch bouffant cap effectively binds hair and intercepts particulate shedding without generating undue heat accumulation for the operator. Supplied as a high-volume industrial facility logistics case of 2,000 caps (arranged as 20 internal dispenser bags containing 100 caps each), this model features a heavy-duty, latex-free elastic band perimeter that delivers uniform, slip-free structural coverage over full or dense hair profiles.

Technical Performance & Design

• Breathable Spunbond Web Material: Constructed from low-linting, high-purity spunbond polypropylene fabric. The microscopic pore structure allows metabolic heat and moisture vapor to pass upwards freely, preventing scalp perspiration and ensuring worker comfort during extended manufacturing shifts.
• Latex-Free Uniform Elasticity: Outfitted with an integrated, highly resilient synthetic elastic band that expands smoothly around the skull. The latex-free composition eliminates the risk of hypersensitivity reactions, while maintaining a secure, non-irritating grip that prevents hair escapes during intensive movement.
• Generous 24-Inch Diameter Profile: The expanded 24-inch sizing provides a versatile, deep volume capacity. This layout allows operators with long, thick, or braided hair to easily secure their full hair mass beneath the perimeter without requiring secondary clips or tearing the fabric substrate.
• Low-Lint Cleanroom Compatibility: Formulated to meet high structural standards for thread integrity, mitigating fiber fragmentation and fuzzing near sensitive diagnostic balances, optical microscopy stages, or biological safety cabinets.

Key Benefits & Applications

• Pharmaceutical & Bioprocessing Gowning: An essential layer for primary cleanroom gowning lines (ISO Class 7/8) to trap hair and dander, preventing microscopic human particulates from migrating into raw material vessels or filling manifolds.
• Clinical Diagnostics and Phlebotomy Labs: Protects open fluid tubes, chemistry analyzers, and patient blood extractions from accidental hair drop contamination during high-turnover sampling runs.
• Food Processing and Quality Assurance: Fully complies with standard workplace hygiene regulations to prevent hair contamination across food preparation, packaging, and raw material handling zones.
• Electronics and Sensitive Hardware Assembly: Minimizes static-attracted debris shedding onto delicate printed circuit boards, bare silicon wafers, or sensitive optics during micro-assembly routines.
