Light Splash Chemical Protective Suit

Kappler Zytron® 100XP

Tough, blue chemical PPE for everyday industrial jobs – designed for dry particulates through to light chemical splash, paint spray and similar aerosols, where you need dependable barrier performance without over-speccing a fully encapsulating suit.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Zytron® 100XP a fully encapsulating (gas-tight) hazmat suit?

No. Zytron® 100XP is positioned for dry particulates to light splash and similar industrial exposures. If your job involves unknown vapours, high splash volume, or highly toxic atmospheres, you may need a higher level of protection and a different garment style.

How do I check whether it’s suitable for my chemical?

Use the garment’s QR/HazMatch chemical test data to review published breakthrough times for your specific chemical, then select the correct style and seam type for the physical state (solid/liquid/vapour) and exposure scenario.

Does Zytron® 100XP contain PFAS?

Kappler states that Zytron® 100XP fabric does not contain PFAS chemistry.

What garment styles are available?

Zytron® 100XP is offered across multiple protective garment styles (coveralls, hooded options and more). Availability depends on the exact configuration required for your site and task.
