Velilla 539010 unisex microfiber lab coat: the lightest, antibacterial and liquid-repellent
The white microfiber lab coat from the healthcare range. Just 140 g/m², the lightest in the lab coat catalog, with an antibacterial and liquid-repellent treatment. Shirt collar, snap button closure, three pockets and reinforced back seams. It shares its fabric with the 533007 microfiber scrubs and the 535207 tunic.
✅ Features
Antibacterial treatment: the finish slows bacterial growth between washes, which means less odor at the end of a long shift.
Liquid-repellent: water-based splashes roll off instead of soaking in right away. It gives you time to step away, although it is not a certified sanitary barrier.
Just 140 g/m²: seventy grams less than the 539001 twill lab coat. You notice it in summer, in heavily heated wards and when the lab coat is worn over another garment.
Snap buttons: it opens in one pull in the event of a spill or splash.
Shirt collar: the classic collar with lapel, more formal than the mandarin collar of the 539006S.
Reinforced back seams and back vent.
Three patch pockets.
👷 Suitable for
Medical practices, health centers and dental clinics.
Veterinary clinics and dog grooming, where the repellent finish helps with water and fluids.

💡 Tip: This lab coat is not suitable for working near a flame, a hot plate or any source of sparks. It is 100% polyester, and polyester melts and sticks to the skin, making a burn worse. For a laboratory with a burner, a bakery kitchen with an oven or a workshop, the right lab coat is the 539005 in 100% cotton. Here the microfiber shines in medical practices, veterinary clinics, pharmacies and beauty centers.

What does the antibacterial and repellent treatment offer?

What fabric is it made of and how much does it weigh?
It is made of microfiber, 100% polyester, at 140 g/m², the lightest in the lab coat catalog. It is comfortable in summer or in heavily heated wards.
How do I wash it?
Wash at 60 °C; it dries very quickly and hardly needs ironing. Do not use fabric softener, as it cancels out the repellent finish, or chlorine bleach.
Is it suitable for working near a flame?

Frequently Asked Questions
Is it suitable for a laboratory with a burner or a bakery with an oven?
No. It is 100% polyester, and polyester melts and sticks to the skin when exposed to a spark or radiant heat, making the burn worse. For those environments the right coat is the 539005 in 100% cotton.
What does liquid-repellent mean?
That watery splashes run off instead of soaking in instantly, which gives you time to step away and change. It is not a certified healthcare barrier against biological agents.
Why should I not use fabric softener?
Because it leaves a film that saturates the fabric and cancels out the repellent effect. It is the most common reason customers say the fabric has stopped repelling.
Is it cooler than the other lab coats?
Yes, by far. At 140 g/m² compared with the 190 or 210 of the twill coats, it is the lightest in the catalogue and the quickest to dry.
Can it withstand industrial washing at 90 degrees?
The manufacturer specifies 60 °C. At 90 °C the fibre holds up, but the antibacterial and repellent finishes are lost much sooner.
Can it be sterilised in an autoclave?
No. Polyester microfibre is not approved for autoclaving.
How does it differ from the 539006S stretch coat?
That one has a mandarin collar, elastane and 190 g/m². This one has a shirt collar, does not stretch and weighs much less, but has antibacterial and repellent treatment.
