Ultraflex RxTex Healthcare Fabrics

May 8th, 2020

With the spread of COVID-19 in the United States, many wide format printers in our industry have been providing solutions for social distancing graphics. However, many companies have pivoted to use their talents to assist the healthcare industry by providing solutions for Personal Protective Equipment. In response, Ultraflex has worked to create a line of non-woven fabrics that can be used to produce PPE such as face masks, gowns, booties, and other uses. These products adhere to AAMI Ratings.

AAMI Ratings (Association for the Advancement of Medical Instrumentation)

  • Level 1: Minimal risk, to be used, for example, during basic care, standard isolation, cover gown for visitors, or in a standard medical unit.
  • Level 2: Low risk, to be used, for example, during blood draw, suturing, in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU), or a pathology lab.
  • Level 3: Moderate risk, to be used, for example, during arterial blood draw, inserting an Intravenous (IV) line, in the Emergency room, or for trauma cases.
  • Level 4: High risk, to be used, for example, during long, fluid intense procedures, surgery, when pathogen resistance is needed, or infectious diseases are suspected (non-airborne).
