Acovic X-ray protective clothing is made of lead-free rubber sheet, which is safer for users. The main radiation-blocking component is bismuth oxide in place of lead, which is lightweight and can be worn for long periods. It is particularly appropriate for workers who routinely use X-rays in the surgery, cardiac, emergency, orthopedic and dental departments of medical facilities, as well as in industrial X-ray work.
This innovation enables medical staff to use quality products at an accessible price, and helps reduce imports by as much as Bt175 million per year.
