PROPER ENTRY PROCEDURES: ENTRY PREPARATION

Check the packaging to be sure it�s free of any tears or faulty heat seals. Should you see any, set it aside so others won�t use it and select another. Be sure to report the defective clothing. To prevent the outside of your garment from being contaminated, temporary gloves known as �donning gloves� are sometimes used. Usually these gloves are optional, and are mandatory only in the highest quality of cleanrooms.
