It is comprised of six layers of exotic plastic, aluminum and plastic layered and compressed with special adhesives. The material’s interior foil barrier contains all fluids and vapors while the exterior layer provides strength and durability.
  • What is the shelf life of the BioSeal Systems material?
    The BioSeal Systems material is unaffected by ambient heat or humidity and can be stored without any deterioration in performance or dependability for up to 49 years.
  • What kind of testing has been done on the material?
    Testing has been done by the U.S. Army and U.S. Air Force as well as private sector public safety organizations. These tests have focused specifically on the absolute containment functionality of the BioSeal Systems material. Every test has successfully validated that our technology meets the standards for Biosafety Level 4 containment of all known hazardous biochemical agents.
  • What is “Biosafety Level 4”?
    There are four Biosafety levels defined by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention that are applied to activities involving infectious microorganisms. The levels are designated in ascending order, by degree of protection provided to personnel, the environment, and the community.
