Description

What it is. These cleanroom boot covers are the Ansell BioClean-D S-BDOB, sterile overboots made from lightweight, low-linting CleanTough fabric. Each overboot has an elasticated opening, easy tie fastenings, and a slip-resistant sole for safer footing. The style is listed for Class 10 (ISO 4) use. Ansell sells the style in a universal size, and LabPro supplies it as a case of 150 pieces, which is 75 pairs, with each pair sealed in its own polyethylene bag. Ansell makes a longer 500 mm style separately as the S-BDOB-L.

Why it matters. Footwear is one route by which dirt reaches a clean area, and an overboot adds a barrier over the shoe. Ansell designs the S-BDOB so the elasticated opening holds firmly in place while the ties make the fit adjustable. Its data sheet also describes the CleanTough fabric as static dissipative, with a charge half-decay time of 0.07 seconds, the time a surface charge takes to fall to half its starting value.

How it performs. Each pair is sterilized by gamma irradiation to a sterility assurance level of 10⁻⁶, and Ansell lists a shelf life of three years from the date of manufacture. The listed standards include EN 13034:2005 with A1:2009, EN 1149-5:2018, ISO 11137-1:2006, and ASTM F739, with Category III, CE 0598, and UKCA marking. EN ISO 13688:2013 with A1:2021, the general standard for protective clothing, is also listed. Ansell notes that the overboots give partial body protection only and that its chemical permeation results describe the fabric alone.

Materials and packing. Each pair sits in a sealed inner polyethylene bag, 15 inner bags go in each sealed outer bag, and five outer bags fill a lined carton of 75 pairs. The fabric is white CleanTough with bound seams, single-needle stitching, and white ties and thread, and the material is listed as latex-free. The overboot is sterile and single-use, so each wearer starts with a fresh pair.

Applications / Common Uses

  • Blending and compounding. Ansell recommends the overboots for blending and compounding solids and liquids, where a sterile, low-linting covering protects the room from the floor up.
  • Life sciences and pharmaceutical cleanrooms. Listed for pharmaceutical, biotechnology, and laboratory use, where the sterile pair and Class 10 (ISO 4) rating suit controlled areas.
  • Medical device manufacturing. Also listed for this work, where the low-linting CleanTough fabric limits fibers shed near product.
  • Forensics and crime scene work. Ansell lists crime scene investigation and forensics among the recommended uses, where a sterile single-use overboot limits transfer.
  • Floors that need grip. The slip-resistant sole gives footing on smooth cleanroom floors where a wearer moves between gowning and process areas.

Storage, Handling & Shipping

The S-BDOB is supplied sterile and for single use, one pair per sealed bag. Ansell lists a shelf life of three years from the date of manufacture. Keep cartons sealed until you need a pair, and follow the storage and expiry details printed on the carton.

  • Keep each pair in its sealed bag until you gown to protect sterility.
  • Use each pair once and discard it after use, following your site's waste rules.
  • Tie the fastenings so the overboot sits firmly before entering the controlled area.
  • Order by case: 150 pieces is 75 pairs.

FAQs

What are overboots, and how do they differ from shoe covers?

A shoe cover fits over the shoe only, while an overboot rises above the ankle and fastens with an elasticated opening and ties. The S-BDOB is the standard-length overboot. Ansell's S-BDOB-L is a longer style at 500 mm with ties at the top and ankle, for more coverage up the leg.

What does partial body protection only mean on the listing?

Ansell lists ASTM F739 and EN 13034 for the S-BDOB and notes partial body protection only. ASTM F739 is a chemical permeation test method, and EN 13034 covers protective clothing with limited liquid chemical performance. The overboot is a cleanroom garment, not a chemical-resistant boot, so check your own hazards.

Which garments are overboots worn with?

Ansell pairs overboots with its separate-hood garments. For example, the S-BDCCT collar coverall is worn with a separate hood and overboots, and the S-BDCHT, with an integrated hood, is worn with overboots. The S-BDSH coverall covers the body and head, so overboots complete it.

Can the S-BDOB go into an EU GMP Grade A or B zone?

This overboot is listed for Class 10 (ISO 4) and EU GMP Grade A, and Ansell's longer S-BDOB-L sheet lists Grade A and B and other sterile cleanrooms. The S-BDOB is sterile, which is what those zones generally require of garments, but your site's contamination control strategy decides the final assignment.

How should I put on overboots over cleanroom shoes?

Put the overboots on in the gowning area over cleanroom footwear, hold each one by the elasticated opening, and tie the fastenings so the opening sits snugly. Keep the area clean while you do it, and follow your site's procedure for the order of donning relative to the coverall.
