Ansell AlphaTec® 56-910 PVC Coat Apron (Blue) — 8 mil Virgin Vinyl (PVC), Dielectrically Sealed Seams, Elasticized Cuffs, 4 Grommeted 15" Ties, 12/Case

PPE (Non-Sterile) Vinyl (PVC) 8 mil Coat Apron (Greater Coverage) Elasticized Cuffs Dielectrically Sealed Seams No Metal Parts 12/Case Silicone-free: Not Tested

Overview

AlphaTec® 56-910 is a medium-to-heavy duty PVC (vinyl) coat-style apron engineered for wet-process work where routine splash, spray, and incidental contact can create real exposure risk. The coat design adds coverage beyond a standard bib apron, while elasticized cuffs help reduce run-down at the wrist during wash-down, maintenance, sanitation, and liquid handling.

Ansell is a best-in-class PPE manufacturer, and SOSCleanroom maintains a close relationship with Ansell to help customers standardize specifications, reduce substitution risk, and keep safety programs consistent across shifts and sites.

Why this coat apron matters for safety

Designed for splash conditions: 8 mil PVC construction is intended to provide a practical splash barrier while staying flexible for long tasks.
Seam strategy that supports hygiene: dielectrically sealed seams (vs. sewn seams) help reduce areas where soils can lodge during repeated wash-down cycles.
No metal parts: reduces corrosion risk in wet environments and avoids metal hardware that can degrade over time.
Wrist-area control: elasticized cuffs help limit liquid migration and reduce sleeve ride-up during motion.

Typical work areas and tasks supported (published examples)

Plant disinfection and sanitization
Equipment maintenance and repair
Transferring liquids
Storing and transportation; canning; bottling
Food processing tasks (e.g., packing fillets and ground meat)

Chemical splash performance is chemistry-specific. Confirm compatibility for your exact chemicals, concentrations, temperatures, and exposure duration using SDS guidance and your site hazard assessment.

Packaging and handling

Shipped as a case of 12, with individual bagging (published) to support clean staging and reduce damage before first use.

Inspect before use and remove from service if torn, punctured, stiffened, or if tie points/grommets are stressed or damaged.

Storage and lifecycle control

Store in a cool, dry location away from direct sunlight and heat sources to preserve PVC flexibility.
Avoid sharp edges during storage and staging to prevent micro-cuts that can compromise barrier performance.
Define and train “change triggers” (splash event, uncontrolled contact, cuts/tears, end-of-task/shift per SOP).

Documentation

Use manufacturer documentation alongside your hazard assessment to support PPE selection, training, and safe-work procedures.

PPE Safety Article Splash + Spray Control Wash-Down / Sanitation Ready Training & Standard Work

The real problem: “routine wet exposure”

Most exposure events are not catastrophic spills. They are routine splashes, hose overspray, drip lines, and wet-contact transfer from equipment and containers. Over time, “small” exposures create big issues: skin irritation, contaminated garments, rework, and unsafe behavior as operators rush to finish tasks. A coat-style apron is a practical control because it reduces direct contact at the torso and adds sleeve coverage where forearms and wrists routinely enter the hazard zone.

Why 56-910 is a “coat apron” (and why that matters)

A bib apron primarily protects the front torso. A coat apron adds coverage and control where exposure commonly happens during wash-down and transfer: the sleeve path, the wrist area, and the sides where liquids can wrap around during turning and lifting. AlphaTec® 56-910 pairs that coverage with elasticized cuffs, helping limit run-down at the wrist during spraying and scrubbing.

Operational takeaway

If your teams frequently reach into sinks, tanks, tote wash stations, or wet equipment, coat-style coverage is often the difference between “mostly protected” and a consistently controlled task.

Design details that support safety programs

8 mil PVC balance: designed to provide splash protection while remaining flexible for long-duration wear.
Dielectrically sealed seams: avoids sewn seams that can trap soils and degrade during repeated wet cleaning cycles.
No metal parts: supports wet-area durability by reducing corrosion points and hardware failure modes.
Grommeted tie system: provides an adjustable fit; tie integrity matters because poor fit increases snag risk and exposure.

Why SOSCleanroom emphasizes “best-in-class” PPE

PPE programs break down when product substitutions occur quietly and frequently. Ansell is best-in-class because specifications, documentation, and design intent are consistent—supporting training, hazard assessments, and standard work. SOSCleanroom’s close relationship with Ansell helps customers reduce spec drift, keep documentation aligned, and maintain dependable supply for teams that cannot afford downtime.

Donning, doffing, and “contaminated surface” discipline

Treat the apron exterior as contaminated during use. Many cross-contact events happen after the task—when operators touch handles, controls, or doors with gloves that just contacted the apron front.

Inspect before use: confirm no cuts/tears; check cuffs and grommet/tie points.
Secure ties to prevent snag: long dangling ties are a safety hazard and a contamination transfer risk.
Doff slowly: untie without snapping; roll contaminated surfaces inward.
Glove logic: if gloves contact apron exterior during removal, change gloves per SOP before touching clean controls.

Build the full protection system (apron is one layer)

Aprons protect the torso and arms, but splash events often involve eyes/face and hands/forearms. Confirm the full PPE set via hazard assessment and SDS:

Eye/face: goggles and/or face shield for spray or decanting tasks
Hands/forearms: chemical-resistant gloves matched to exact chemistry and contact time
Feet: boots or shoe protection where floor splash/runoff is expected
