VitaFlex Hoods are a new necessity during any Dirty Job for primary protection. For the cost of a dust mask, the VitaFlex hood covers the entire scalp, face, and neck. It is an innovative head cover 100% made in USA from globally patented Latex-free elastic nonwovens. It significantly improves worker's comfort, safety, and job efficiency. The Vitaflex Hoods are replacing the knitted Spray Socks by exhibiting superior barrier functionality and cost saving. The knitted spray sock and balaclava allow drips to penetrate through them. Conversely, the triple-layer fiberweb structure of the VitaFlex hood has ultrafine openings and provides a thin, yet dense "breathable barrier" effectively blocking Dust, Dirt, Soot, Debris, Grease, Mud, Liquid Splashes, and Paint or Chemical Overspray. It is designed to be worn over a face mask and goggles or under a respirator. Goggles with anti-fog lens are recommended. It also can be worn over the knitted balaclava to block dirt or wind penetration or under a helmet as a liner. If needed, multiple hoods can be layered to achieve the desired effectiveness. The VitaFlex hood has been embraced by companies (from Dirty Jobs to Clean Room) in Powder Coating, Commercial Painting, Power Washing, Spray Foam, Waterproofing, Pest Control, Asbestos & Lead Remediation, Disaster Restoration, Poultry Farms, Construction, Media Blasting, and many others. The full-cover design provides maximum full facial coverage and a tight fit around wearer's eyes. To change the Full-Cover to Open-Face, simply take scissors and clip off the nose portion prior to wearing. The hood is not for replacing a mask if required by OSHA. Not FDA or NIOSH rated. Not for blocking toxic or bio-hazard gases, fumes, or vapors. Not for blocking pressurized liquid and particles. Not to be used near flames or in an environment of above 200˚F.
