I agree with Monique...The Workrite coats are much lighter weight, have gathered cuffs and also come in a chemical protective model.

Best,

In my last position we had lab coats that were flame resistant (light-weight nomex) and also provided chemical splash protection via a coating that repelled liquids. The material also was anti-static. The coats were very comfortable and I felt gave me the best protection over any lab coat I had ever used before. They are made by Workrite Uniform Company, link attached here:

Hi all,

C&EN is looking at giving away some lab coats as part of a promotional event, and I've been asked to provide options. For those of you that distribute lab coats to researchers that use chemicals (whether in a chemistry research lab or elsewhere!), I'd love to know the brand and style that you use. You can share on the list or email me directly at j_kemsley**At_Symbol_Here**acs.org.

Thank you!
