Garfield NJ – Wearbest Weavers, LLC has been a longstanding supplier of technical performance fabrics to the healthcare industry providing micro and bacterial resistant upholstery product. These durable textiles are bleach cleanable and have been used in hospitals, medical clinics, nursing homes, and assisted living facilities.

The protective fabrics Wearbest has tirelessly developed, comply with national standards to meet Barrier Levels I, II and III. The goods are qualified to be fabricated into medical gowns, hospital gowns, isolation gowns and other protective clothing. The Barrier Level 1 fabric offers protection from pathogens and can be washed to commercial standards.
Greg Thomases, Vice President of Wearbest parent company Swavelle added, “I am very proud of our team effort to turn around our production so quickly. We are fortunate to have a US mill that provides us the capability to produce PPE product. We’ve accomplished a lot in just a few weeks and plan to continue innovating through this unprecedented time. Our hope is to help meet the needs of thousands of frontline healthcare workers.”
