What it is

Kimtech™ 39370 PURE A8 Shoe Covers are disposable, cleanroom-compatible footwear covers designed to reduce particulate transfer from personnel footwear into controlled environments. Built from low-lint nonwoven material with an elasticized ankle opening, they serve as the footwear barrier layer within gowning programs for laboratory, pharmaceutical, biotech, semiconductor, and advanced manufacturing environments. The Small/Medium size provides a fitted ankle seal for smaller footwear profiles — the right choice when Universal sizing does not seat consistently or when gowning protocols specify size-matched covers for improved retention. At 600 covers per case (300 per bag, 2 bags per case), pack volume matches the 39371 Universal for high-turnover programs.

Performance intent

Designed to reduce particulate migration from shoe soles into ISO-classified and contamination-controlled floor areas. Functions as a disposable outer barrier layer integrated into gowning SOPs — donned before crossing the controlled boundary and removed as part of the doffing sequence at exit. The Small/Medium fit improves elastic ankle retention on smaller footwear where a Universal or Large/X-Large cover may gap, bunch, or slip during movement. White construction supports visual identification of soiling and contamination at defined change-out points. Confirm suitability to your specific ISO classification and gowning protocol before standardizing.

Use boundary: Shoe covers reduce particulate transfer from footwear — they are not a substitute for dedicated cleanroom footwear in environments where footwear particle contribution is a primary contamination control point. Confirm your gowning SOP defines the correct footwear strategy for your ISO class.
Brand note: The Kimtech™ PPE business was acquired by Ansell from Kimberly-Clark's KCPPE division. Part numbers and configurations remain aligned with manufacturer documentation under Ansell stewardship.

Kimtech™ PURE A8 Low-Lint Nonwoven Elastic Retention Small / Medium Footwear Contamination Control 600/Case
Kimtech™ 39370 PURE A8 Shoe Covers (S/M): size-matched footwear contamination control for smaller footwear profiles

Footwear is one of the highest-risk particulate transport vectors in controlled environments. As personnel move between gowning zones and production areas, shoe soles redistribute floor debris into ISO-classified spaces. The Kimtech™ 39370 PURE A8 Shoe Cover provides a disposable low-lint nonwoven outer barrier designed to reduce that transfer when integrated into a documented gowning protocol.

The Small/Medium size is the precision-fit option in the PURE A8 shoe cover line — designed for smaller footwear profiles where Universal or Large/X-Large covers gap, bunch, or lose ankle retention during movement. A properly sized cover seats the elastic consistently against the ankle, closing the gap that an oversized cover leaves open. At 600 covers per case (300 per bag, 2 bags per case), volume matches the 39371 Universal for programs running high daily turnover.

Operations takeaway: Size selection is a contamination control decision, not just a comfort decision. An oversized cover on a small shoe can slip during movement, expose the sole at the heel, and introduce floor contamination at exactly the boundary you're trying to protect.

Primary functionReduces particulate transfer from shoe soles into ISO-classified floor areas
Barrier typeDisposable outer layer over standard footwear — not a replacement for dedicated cleanroom footwear
Material contributionLow-lint nonwoven construction minimizes fiber shedding from the cover itself during use
Size advantageS/M fit improves elastic ankle retention on smaller footwear where Universal or L/XL covers may gap, bunch, or slip during movement
Visual detectionWhite color supports identification of soiling, fluid contact, and change-out triggers
Use boundary: Shoe covers reduce particulate transfer from footwear — they are not a substitute for dedicated cleanroom footwear where footwear particle contribution is a primary contamination control point. They supplement floor cleaning programs and air management systems — they do not replace them. Confirm your gowning SOP defines the correct footwear strategy for your ISO class.
ISO 14644 operational alignment

ISO 14644-5:2025 operations control programs govern personnel movement, material flow, and contamination mitigation systems as part of a documented Operations Control Programme (OCP). Footwear coverings function within that structure to support floor cleanliness and reduce airborne particulate redistribution from floor-level disturbance. Selection should align with your ISO classification level, air change rates, gowning room design, and personnel traffic intensity.

System perspective: Shoe covers are one layer of a floor contamination control strategy — not a standalone solution. Effectiveness depends on gowning boundary discipline, correct don sequence, size-appropriate fit, and defined replacement triggers written into the SOP.
39370 vs. 39371 vs. 39372: choosing the right size in the PURE A8 line
SKUSizeBest for
39370Small/MediumSmaller footwear profiles where Universal or L/XL covers gap or slip at the ankle
39371UniversalMixed-size workforces, visitor gowning, and high-volume programs where single-SKU simplicity is the priority
39372Large/X-LargeLarger footwear profiles where Universal sizing may not seat tightly at the ankle
Sizing guidance: All three SKUs use the same PURE A8 low-lint nonwoven platform and 600/case pack configuration (39370, 39371) or verify case qty for 39372. The right choice is determined by your workforce footwear range and whether ankle retention consistency is a defined control point in your gowning SOP.
Corporate transition: Kimberly-Clark PPE → Ansell

The Kimtech™ and KleenGuard™ PPE portfolio was acquired by Ansell from Kimberly-Clark's KCPPE division. Product part numbers and configurations remain aligned with published manufacturer documentation. For validated cleanroom programs, always reference current technical data under Ansell stewardship.

Intended use cases
  • Gowning programs where S/M footwear is common and Universal sizing does not seat consistently at the ankle
  • Workforces where size-specific shoe cover SKUs are specified by gowning SOP for improved retention control
  • Pharmaceutical, biotech, semiconductor, and advanced manufacturing environments requiring disposable footwear barriers
  • Anteroom and gowning room entry protocols where shoe covers are donned before crossing the controlled boundary
  • High-volume programs requiring 600 covers/case at the S/M size range
Best-practice use
  1. Don before crossing the boundary: Shoe covers must be applied before stepping into the controlled zone. Define the exact donning point in your gowning SOP and mark it physically in the gowning room.
  2. Confirm size selection: S/M covers should seat the elastic snugly against the ankle without tension-induced tearing. If the cover pulls tight across the toe box, move to Universal or L/XL sizing.
  3. Seat the elastic fully: Confirm the elasticized opening encloses the full shoe perimeter and ankle before moving into the controlled zone.
  4. Don in sequence: In full gowning programs, shoe covers are typically donned before standing from the gowning bench — confirm your SOP don sequence and train to it.
  5. Change-out triggers: Replace immediately if torn, fluid-wet, or visibly soiled, or after exiting the controlled zone. Do not re-enter with a previously worn cover.
  6. Dispose immediately: Remove and discard used covers at the doffing point per your facility waste SOP.
SOP standardization tip: Lock three variables in the written procedure: exact donning point, elastic-seated confirmation step, and single-use rule. Add a fourth for this SKU: size selection criteria so operators know when to use S/M versus Universal.
When 39370 shoe covers are not the right choice
  • Large or extra-large footwear: S/M sizing will not seat correctly on larger shoes — specify 39371 Universal or 39372 L/XL.
  • Environments requiring dedicated cleanroom footwear: In ISO Class 5 and cleaner environments, dedicated cleanroom shoes or boots with validated particle performance are typically required — shoe covers over street shoes are not an equivalent control.
  • Fluid or chemical splash hazard on floors: Low-lint nonwoven shoe covers are not chemical-resistant footwear PPE. Specify appropriate chemical-resistant boot covers for floor-level chemical exposure.
  • ESD-controlled environments: Confirm ESD suitability before use — standard nonwoven shoe covers are not inherently ESD-safe.
  • Reuse after zone exit: These are single-use disposable covers. Do not launder, dry, or reuse after any wear event.
Why source Kimtech™ 39370 from SOSCleanroom
  • Exact SKU + case configuration control: Ordering by part number 39370 and confirmed case pack (600/case) reduces the risk of receiving a non-equivalent substitute cover that differs in material, size, or PURE A8 certification status.
  • Full PURE A8 line availability: SOSCleanroom stocks the complete 39370 / 39371 / 39372 size range, supporting programs that run multiple sizes across a mixed workforce without split-sourcing.
  • Brand continuity after acquisition: Kimtech™ PPE is now under Ansell. SOSCleanroom sources the current product line under the correct successor SKUs, reducing procurement confusion during the brand transition.
  • Consolidated procurement: Pair shoe covers with Kimtech™ lab coats, Ansell cleanroom gloves, Texwipe wipers, and other gowning and facility consumables in a single order.
