BIOGARD
men's anti-encephalitis suit

Jacket + trousers

The suit provides sustainable and effective protection against ticks, gnats and other bloodsucking flying insects, such as mosquitoes, midges, gad flies, etc.) due to the complex protection ensured by the construction of the garment and fabric properties preventing mosquitoes stinging and by chemical treatment of the inserts with insects repellent finish. The suit is ready to use, it does not require any additional treatment, such as insect repellent application.

The suit features constructive details preventing penetration by ticks inside the garment, such as

1. Flounce-shaped protective diverting folds preventing ticks from crawling up from under the divertor and up the clothing to unprotected parts of the body.
There are protective diverting folds on the jacket:

• at the front and on the back, at waist level, and on the sleeves (downwards from the elbow line), additional folds are in the chest and in the blade areas.
• Trousers have folds in the lower part.

2. Powder skirt (lining of the lower part of the jacket) must be tucked in the trousers.
3. Rib-knit cuffs at the lower edge of sleeves and gaiters inside trousers cling tightly to the legs.
4. Jacket bottom hem is secured with elastic cord with a toggle cord lock.

Chemical protection includes the following:

1. Eight areas of the suit are impregnated with insects repellent substance that paralyzes ticks crawling up the clothes thus making them fall down.
2. While an average maximum height for a tick to crawl up any treated fabric is 50 cm, it takes only 5 minutes for a tick to fall down from this fabric.
3. The protection lasts when the suit gets wet in the rain and up to over 35 machine washes at 40 °C.
4. Protection properties of the suit are certified by Russian consumer protection agency Rospotrebnadzor and are confirmed by the Research Institute of Desinfectology.

If the suit is worn correctly the protection against ticks is 99% and 97.5% against gnats (if the mesh on the hood is closed).

The jacket is zippered in the upper part. The hood is integrated, it is equipped with a visor, which provides a necessary distance from the face to the mosquito mesh. The volume adjustable hood has rear PVC windows enhancing the wearer's field of vision. The middle part of the hood provides a tight and good positioning on the head, unlike a one-seam hood. The mosquito mesh shields against flying blood-sucking insects, it is zippered to the hood and can be kept in the inside pocket.
Sleeves with rib-knit cuffs allow working with moving mechanisms as fabric does not get into equipment. Outside sleeve seam provides extra space for freedom of movement. Zippered breast pocket is equipped with flounce-shaped protective diverting fold.

Trousers feature elastic waistband, patch pockets with bagging and flaps secured on velcro tape and elastic loops at trouser bottom for shoes.
