Abstract

The purpose of this study was to improve the design and function of a disposable, level-one protective coverall for a Fortune 500 company. This research used the design process in conjunction with product benchmarking, on-site observational studies, user feedback, 3D body scan technology, fit tests, and expert evaluation to develop a coverall that is superior to the company's current offering.
