NORTH AMERICA

Standard Textile Co, the global provider of total solutions in the institutional textiles and apparel markets, and Vestagen Protective Technologies have announced a sales and marketing partnership in the USA and Canada for Vestagen’s Vestex active barrier fabrics for healthcare uniforms and apparel.

Vestagen is a pioneer in the development of “active barrier” fabric that incorporates multiple technologies to help minimise risks associated with unanticipated exposure to body fluids during routine use, by repelling fluid splatter and spills from the fabric.

Vestex Active Barrier apparel has earned the exclusive endorsement of the American Hospital Association.

The co-exclusive sales and marketing agreement covers acute and post-acute healthcare facilities in the USA and Canada.

Standard Textile healthcare sales representatives will be supported by Vestagen personnel, who will also take the lead on working with institutional customers during the implementation process.

“For over 70 years, Standard Textile has been synonymous with innovation in the hospitality, healthcare, workwear and consumer sectors,” said Norman Frankel, executive vice president/sales at Standard Textile. “With Vestex, we are offering breakthrough technology for healthcare workers that complements our existing specialty product lines designed to address the unique needs of healthcare institutions.

Bill Bold, CEO of Vestagen Protective Technologies said: “Healthcare uniforms made with our Vestex Active Barrier fabric are increasingly being adopted by healthcare leaders such as New York’s Northwell Health. This partnership with Standard Textile now gives us the reach to bring Vestex garments to healthcare workers throughout the USA and Canada.”
