PVC Coated Fabric for Medical Curtains

Introduction

Medical partition curtains are important barriers for space division and privacy protection in hospitals. The selection of materials for medical curtains is directly related to the cleanliness and safety of the medical environment. Among various materials, PVC-coated fabric is the most suitable material for medical partition curtains. This article will take you on a deep dive into the core advantages of PVC-coated fabrics in the field of medical curtains.

The advantages of PVC coated fabric performance

Antibacterial barrier with PVC coating

Medical-grade PVC coating is treated with a special formula, and silver ion or quaternary ammonium salt antibacterial agents are added to the surface. Tests have shown that the inhibition rate against common pathogenic bacteria such as Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli can reach 99.8%. Its dense coating structure forms a physical barrier, effectively blocking the penetration of microorganisms.

PVC coated fabrics can be used frequently

PVC coated fabric is made by a composite process of high-strength polyester fiber base fabric and PVC, with a breaking strength of over 4500N/5cm. After 30,000 friction tests, the surface wear rate is less than 2%, meeting the high-frequency push-pull usage requirements of medical institutions.

The advantages of PVC-coated fabrics in practical use

High cleaning efficiency: The smooth surface of PVC shortens the disinfectant wiping time by 40% and supports multiple rapid disinfections daily

Liquid barrier capacity: It can withstand a static water pressure of 80cm at a thickness of 1.5mm, effectively preventing fluid infiltration

Fire safety certification: Complies with the BS 5852 flame retardant standard, and the self-extinguishing time when exposed to a fire source is less than 2 seconds

Long service life: Compared with ordinary fabric curtains, the service life is extended by 3 to 5 times

Low maintenance cost: Supports high-temperature steam cleaning (≤120℃) and treatment with powerful disinfectants

Flexible retrofit: Supports quick disassembly and assembly by track type/magnetic attraction type, reducing the downtime for retrofit by 60%

Conclusion

Medical partition curtains are basic consumables in the medical industry, and their quality represents the quality of medical services. PVC coated fabrics have outstanding physical properties and chemical stability. In addition, PVC coated fabrics also support various certifications and are materials for medical access.
