ValuMax Extra-Safe Lab Jackets

The ValuMax Extra-Safe line covers the everyday protective layer that lab techs, phlebotomists, dental staff, and clinicians reach for shift after shift. Each jacket is a unisex, hip-length design with long sleeves, a snap-front closure for quick on-and-off, and knit collar and cuffs that seal at the wrists to keep fluids and contaminants from creeping past your arms.

These are limited-reuse jackets — the practical middle ground between flimsy single-use gowns and heavy laundered coats. They hold up to repeated wear during a rotation without the cost or turnaround of a laundry service, then get retired when they've done their job. That makes them a sensible fit for busy labs, clinics, and teaching settings that go through protective wear steadily.

Sizing runs Small through X-Large, and because the cut is unisex, staff sharing a supply closet can grab a jacket that fits without special ordering. Color coding is where this line earns its keep on the floor: the 3630 series comes in Blueberry, Cranberry, Purple, Raspberry, and Sky Blue. Many facilities assign colors by department, role, or shift so a glance tells you who's who — or simply stock a shade that reads clean and professional against scrubs.

A few points buyers usually check before ordering: the snap front means no pull-over contact with your face or hair, the knit cuffs tuck neatly under glove edges for a continuous barrier, and hip length gives coverage while sitting at a bench or chairside without excess fabric getting in the way.
