To assist navigation through COVID-19 PPE issues, AWTA Product Testing has the ability to test healthcare textiles according to ANSI\/AAMI PB70:2012. AWTA Product Testing can offer testing to Level 3 – Moderate protection against fluid penetration. (Level 4 is the desired level as this offers barrier protection against viral penetration. Unfortunately, this is outside of the scope of our laboratory and we are not aware of a facility in Australasia with this capability).<\/p>\n The laboratory is NATA accredited to perform this test according to ISO 6530 and Standards Australia has adopted this method as ASISO 6530. This method allows for the measurement of a textiles ability to resist penetration to any liquid that may be a chemical or synthetic blood. <\/p>\n CONTACT US:<\/strong><\/span> <\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Do you require Healthcare Textile testing according to ANSI\/AAMI PB70:2012?

This testing categorises textiles from Level 1 through to 4 depending upon the level of barrier protection against fluid penetration:
\u2022 Level 1 offers low protection
\u2022 Level 4 high protection<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"\/app\/images\/gown.jpg\")
Our laboratory can offer testing according to:
– Protective Clothing
– Protective against Liquid Chemicals
– Determination of Resistance of Materials to Penetration of Liquids<\/p>\n
