What Are Coveralls, Boiler Suits and Hazmat Suits?
Coveralls (also known as boiler suits or overalls) are one-piece garments designed to protect the wearer’s clothing and skin from dirt, dust, liquids and general workplace hazards.
Boiler suits are the UK term commonly used for durable industrial coveralls worn in construction, engineering and mechanical environments.
Hazmat suits and biohazard suits are specialist protective coveralls designed for high-risk environments involving hazardous chemicals, biological agents or contamination risks. These are commonly used in laboratories, emergency response, chemical handling and industrial cleaning operations.
These terms are often used interchangeably across industries, but they all refer to variations of full-body protective workwear used depending on the level of risk and environment.
