Ansell S-BDSC-L BioClean-D Sterile Sleeve Covers — Class 10 (ISO 4) / EU GMP Grade A (90 Pairs/Case)

Ansell BioClean-D™ Sterile Sleeve Covers (S-BDSC-L) are single-use, sterile cleanroom sleeve covers designed to reduce operator-borne contamination risk at the arm-to-wrist zone. Manufactured from low-linting, antistatic CleanTough™ material with elasticated openings for a secure fit, these sleeves support consistent gowning where ISO Class 4 (Class 10) / EU GMP Grade A environments require disciplined personnel controls. Each pair is gamma irradiated (minimum dose 25 kGy) to a sterility assurance level (SAL) of 10-6 and packaged for controlled entry (90 pairs per case).

Cleanroom use note: Sleeve covers help reduce exposed-sleeve risk and help stabilize glove-to-garment interfaces, but results depend on your gowning SOP, operator technique, and change frequency.

About the Manufacturer: 

BioClean-D™ garments and accessories are part of Ansell’s controlled-environment PPE portfolio. For ISO-classified cleanrooms and EU GMP sterile operations, these sleeves are positioned as a practical control for the high-shedding, high-contact arm interface—especially when your workflow requires consistent glove-to-sleeve overlap and reduced exposed garment risk.

SOSCleanroom supports contamination-control programs with dependable supply and product documentation so QA, receiving, and gowning teams can standardize how critical PPE is introduced, stored, and used.

Key Features (S-BDSC-L):
  • Low-linting, antistatic CleanTough™ sleeve covers designed for quick, simple donning
  • Elasticated openings to help maintain a stable fit during movement
  • Universal long length (minimum 480 mm) for extended forearm coverage
  • Gamma irradiated (minimum 25 kGy) for sterile use; SAL 10-6
  • Packaging designed for controlled entry: 90 pairs/case with multiple bag layers
Benefits for Cleanroom Operations:
  • Stabilizes the wrist interface: Helps reduce exposed-sleeve risk and supports consistent glove overlap when paired with your gowning SOP.
  • Reduces variability across shifts: Standard sleeve format and packaging help minimize ad-hoc solutions at the gowning boundary.
  • Supports ESD-sensitive areas: CleanTough™ is described as static dissipative, supporting static-safe environments when grounded per site practice.
  • Audit-ready documentation: Sterility, packaging, and conformance documents are available from manufacturer sources.
Common Applications:
  • ISO-classified cleanrooms where personnel controls are required to protect the process and product
  • EU GMP sterile operations (Grade A) where gowning discipline and behavior reduce contamination risk
  • High-contact workflows (aseptic staging, handling, component prep) where sleeve-to-glove integrity matters
  • Static-sensitive environments where static dissipative garments are part of the control strategy
Best-Practice Donning Notes (to minimize contamination):
  • Don in a controlled sequence: Apply sleeve covers after your base gown/coverall is on and positioned correctly, and before final outer glove sealing (site-dependent).
  • Touch control: Handle sleeve covers deliberately to avoid contacting the outside surface more than necessary.
  • Seal the interface: Ensure the wrist opening sits flat and stable. Many aseptic SOPs require the outer glove cuff to overlap the sleeve opening to reduce gaps; tape usage is SOP-dependent.
  • Movement discipline: Slow, deliberate motions reduce particle generation and help maintain sleeve placement.
  • Single-use means single-use: Do not reuse. Remove carefully to contain contamination and dispose per your facility program.

SOP reminder: This guidance is educational. Your facility is responsible for defining and validating the final gowning method, glove interface approach, and change frequency for your specific risks and cleanroom grade.

Why sleeve covers matter in real cleanrooms

In contamination control, sleeves are a frequent failure point: forearms cross over work, cuffs shift during movement, and glove interfaces can open micro-gaps. Sleeve covers are a targeted control for that specific risk. Ansell positions BioClean-D™ S-BDSC-L as sterile, low-linting, antistatic sleeve covers with elasticated openings to help maintain a stable fit, supporting consistent technique in ISO-classified and EU GMP sterile environments.

Standards context (ISO first, then EU Annex 1)
ISO perspective (cleanroom classification + operations discipline)
  • ISO 14644-1 defines cleanroom air cleanliness classification by airborne particle concentration (this is where “ISO Class 4” sits in the ISO framework).
  • ISO 14644-5 addresses cleanroom operations and expects a controlled approach to practices such as clothing/gowning programs, training, and behaviors that protect the environment.
  • ISO logic in practice: the cleaner the room, the more your risk shifts from “equipment contamination” toward “people contamination,” making gowning technique and interfaces (wrists, ankles, neck) disproportionately important.
European Annex 1 perspective (sterile manufacture behavior + gowning control)

EU GMP Annex 1 emphasizes personnel practices, training, and gowning discipline as part of contamination control in sterile manufacturing. The practical takeaway: sleeve covers are not “optional apparel” in Grade A thinking; they are one control in a larger system that includes aseptic technique, qualified gowning, and documented behavior expectations.

What S-BDSC-L is (per manufacturer PDS)
  • Material: CleanTough™ (described as antistatic, lightweight, low-linting).
  • Fit: elasticated openings for a firm fit.
  • Size: universal; long length minimum 480 mm.
  • Construction: bound seams with single needle stitching.
  • Sterile positioning: gamma irradiation (minimum 25 kGy) to SAL 10-6.
  • Cleanroom positioning: Class 10 / ISO 4 & EU GMP Grade A.
How to don sleeve covers to minimize contamination (practical technique)
A practical sequence used in many gowning programs (final method is SOP-dependent)
  1. Prepare: Ensure base garment sleeves are positioned correctly (no bunching). Perform glove sanitization if your SOP requires it before handling sterile accessories.
  2. Open cleanly: Open inner packaging carefully to avoid generating particles or dragging packaging edges across the sleeve material.
  3. Don deliberately: Slide the sleeve cover on slowly. Avoid snapping elastic, which can generate particles and disrupt airflow discipline at the gowning boundary.
  4. Seat both ends: Confirm the upper and wrist elastic openings sit flat and stable (no rolling). The goal is a controlled interface, not comfort alone.
  5. Seal the wrist interface: Many aseptic programs require the outer glove cuff to overlap and “capture” the sleeve opening. Tape use is site-dependent and must follow your validated method.
  6. Final check: Inspect for tears/punctures and re-sanitize gloves if required after gowning contact steps.

Key behavior rule: in ISO 4 / Grade A thinking, your best garment is only as good as the operator technique used to put it on. Slow motions, controlled touches, and a consistently sealed glove interface are the difference between “wearing PPE” and “using PPE correctly.”

Common failure modes (and how to prevent them)
  • Glove interface gap: ensure consistent overlap and a stable wrist seal per SOP (some programs tape; some do not).
  • Elastic “snap” donning: fast motions generate particles; don slowly and deliberately.
  • Cross-touching the outside surface: minimize external contact during donning; treat outer surfaces as critical.
  • Reuse: single-use items must not be reused; remove carefully and dispose per your contamination-control program.
ESD and safety considerations

If your environment is static-sensitive or if flammables are present, follow ESD grounding rules and safety engineering guidance. Manufacturer IFU language for the broader garment family emphasizes that the wearer should be properly earthed and that electrostatic dissipative protective clothing should not be opened or removed in certain hazardous atmospheres. Treat ESD as a system: garment + footwear + flooring + grounding + behavior.

Documentation: what QA/receiving typically files
  • Product Data Sheet (PDS): technical attributes, packaging, test references, cleanroom positioning.
  • Declaration of Conformity (DoC): EU PPE regulation conformity and referenced harmonized standards.
  • IFU / Instructions: storage, disposal, warnings, and use limitations (used alongside SKU-specific packaging information).
SOSCleanroom note about SOPs

The Technical Vault is written to help customers make informed contamination-control decisions and improve day-to-day handling technique. It is not your facility’s Standard Operating Procedure (SOP), batch record, or validation protocol.

Customers are responsible for establishing, training, and enforcing SOPs that fit their specific risks, products, equipment, cleanroom classification, and regulatory obligations. Always confirm suitability using your internal quality system and documented methods.

If you adapt technique guidance from this entry, treat it as a starting template. Review and approve the final method, then qualify it for your specific interfaces, acceptance criteria, and risk profile.
