Overview
The Double Sided Apron, also referred to as a Wrap, is a preferred solution for X‑ray assisted procedures, providing comprehensive protection to clinical staff in the room. It delivers scatter radiation shielding with a minimum of 0.35 mmPb at the front and 0.25 mmPb at the back, compliant with IEC 61331-3:2014.

Design & Fit
The Merge model offers full anterior coverage with a central overlapping closure for uniform protection and ergonomic balance during extended procedures. The cut is designed to preserve freedom of movement and reduce operator fatigue.

Key Features

• Velcro fastening: Adjustable closure for secure fit and flexible sizing.
• Arm hole design: Sized to optimise lateral protection while allowing mobility.
• Integrated sleeve: Adds lateral protection to red bone marrow regions.
• Belt support: External belt reduces shoulder strain during prolonged use.

Materials & Protection Technology (summary)

• Minio: Fully leaded material with advanced formulation; suited to short or occasional wear.
• Leve: Stacked lead construction providing strong protection with reduced weight and flexible behaviour.
• Verde: Lead‑free solution using bismuth/tungsten/antimony blends; among the lightest options, preferred for surgeon comfort.
• Svelte: Lead‑substitution technique combining lead and lead‑free elements (antimony, bismuth, tungsten) to reduce weight by approximately 20–30% versus typical leaded materials; ideal for extended‑wear environments (e.g., cath labs).

Profiles

• Front profile: Full anterior coverage with central overlapping closure for balanced protection and ergonomics.
• Back profile: Ergonomic cut to allow freedom of movement.
