Disposable Shoe Covers

What are disposable shoe covers called?

Disposable shoe covers are also known as "booties." They are made from robust, industrial-grade plastic materials that are tear-proof, water-proof, leak-proof, and help prevent the spread of germs and hazardous materials. One everyday use of booties during the pandemic has been real estate agents giving their clients booties to wear during open houses.

Other common uses include construction workers and painters who need to work inside someone's home but where it isn't practical to remove their shoes. Shoe covers allow them to work safely without damaging their client's flooring.

Booties slide on and off easily but have a secure elastic band that keeps them wrapped around your shoes or boots. You may even use specifically designed boot covers when you need more robust protection.

Regardless, shoe covers are safe on all surfaces, such as hardwood or laminate flooring, as well as tile and carpeting. Some shoe covers may even be re-used if you are not in a high-risk setting, such as a hospital or cleanroom. If you are in a critical environment, we recommend cleanroom apparel.

What are disposable shoe covers used for?

Shoe covers are a common type of personal protective equipment when the industrial, laboratory, and medical fields. However, recently shoe covers have entered the mainstream and have been used by real estate agents, contractors, plumbers, electricians, artists, and more.

Here are the most common use of disposable shoe covers:

Prevent the spread of dust and debris indoors
Protect an environment from bacterial and viral hazards
Ensure a clean environment
Keep your shoes clean
Improve worker efficiency
Maximize customer satisfaction

Booties are a valuable PPE when worn correctly. The CDC has explicit guidance for putting on booties which includes ensuring all areas of the foot are covered and the elastic is snug over your ankle or calf. Some booties have a strap to ensure a secure fit. Try not to touch other surfaces while putting on your shoe covers, and if you do, disinfect your hand with Purell hand sanitizer before putting on your disposable gloves.

Can you wash disposable shoe covers?

Reusing disposable shoe covers seems like a contradiction. Disposable apparel is meant to be worn once and then discarded to ensure a safe environment. However, if you are outside a cleanroom or sterile environment, you may get away with re-using shoe covers. Ensure no apparent signs of wear and remove any dust and debris. If your shoe covers show no sign of being soiled or damaged, then feel free to use your best judgment.

Suppose you are using these covers with cleanroom shoes. In this case, your critical environment may require apparel to be thrown away after a single use to maintain the integrity of your facility. The safety of your critical environment must take precedence.
