What is a Grab'n Go garment?

Grab'n Go is AliMed's line of stock-ready radiation protection garments, exclusively manufactured by AliMed and designed for fast turnaround. The program combines clinician-requested features like memory foam shoulder pads, gender-specific sizing, a fluid-proof outer shell, integrated shoulder tether, and front pocket with the convenience of garments that are always in stock and ready to ship.

How quickly do Grab'n Go garments ship?

Grab'n Go garments are always ready to ship the same day when in stock and ordered by 3 p.m. EST, which makes them well suited for filling out new departments, replacing failed garments, onboarding new staff, or stocking a float pool.

What sizes are available and how are they identified?

Grab'n Go garments are available in Small through X-Large and are color-coded by size so staff can identify the right garment at a glance. Gender-specific cuts are also available for both vest-and-kilt sets and frontal styles to improve coverage and comfort.

What is the difference between lead and lead-free core materials?

Lead is the traditional standard for radiation attenuation due to its density and high atomic number. Lead-free or lead-equivalent cores use materials such as bismuth or antimony to deliver comparable protection at reduced weight. Bismuth, for example, attenuates similarly to lead but is approximately 30% lighter. Grab'n Go garments are offered in both lead and lead-free options.

What level of Pb-equivalent protection do I need?

Published guidance indicates radiation protection garments should have a minimum of 0.25-mm Pb-equivalent thickness, with higher-energy or higher-volume procedures such as interventional cardiology, EP, and cath lab work commonly calling for 0.5-mm Pb-equivalent full wraparound protection. Product pages list the specific rating for each Grab'n Go style.

Should I choose a vest-and-kilt set or a frontal apron?

A two-piece vest-and-kilt distributes weight between the shoulders and hips and is often more comfortable for long interventional or fluoroscopic cases. A single-panel frontal apron is lighter and simpler, often preferred for shorter procedures or primarily forward-facing scatter. The right choice depends on procedure length, case mix, and user preference.

Do Grab'n Go garments come with a thyroid shield?

Thyroid shields are sold separately so you can match the color and core material to your specific need. The thyroid gland is particularly sensitive to radiation, which is why thyroid shields are considered an essential complement to any lead or lead-equivalent garment. AliMed offers matching Grab'n Go thyroid shields as well as single-use disposable options.

How should I clean my radiation protection garment?

Clinical best practice is to wipe garments down between procedures using an appropriate disinfecting wipe and allow them to fully dry before reuse. For deeper cleaning, AliMed recommends non-abrasive, non-alcoholic, bleach-free cleaners to avoid degrading the outer fabric or the internal barrier material, with a quarterly deep-clean cadence as a strong baseline.

How should garments be stored between uses?

Garments should be hung on dedicated hangers or racks, never folded, draped over chairs, or laid on the floor. Folding creates creases that can crack the internal barrier material and compromise protection even when the outside still looks intact. AliMed offers heavy-duty garment hangers, wall racks, and mobile Porta-Raks.

How often should garments be inspected?

Most facilities are required to inspect garments once or twice a year for defects, typically by placing them under fluoroscopy to detect internal damage not visible from the outside. Auditing bodies expect a documented inspection record per garment. The AliTrack Digital Tracking System provides a cloud-based way to log inspections, track inventory, and maintain a cumulative record.

What's included with a Grab'n Go garment purchase?

Every Grab'n Go garment ships with a two-year warranty from the date of shipment, is manufactured in the USA, and is TAA-compliant. Customers also have access to the AliTrack Digital Tracking System for inventory and inspection management. For specifics on any given product, including core material, Pb-equivalent rating, closure style, and available sizes, refer to the individual product page.

Testing

Independently tested ASTM-Verified Performance

AliMed Grab’n Go radiation protection garments are designed to provide dependable shielding performance with the convenience of ready-to-wear inventory. Materials used in Grab’n Go garments have been independently tested by Health Physics Northwest, an accredited radiation physics laboratory. Testing was conducted using calibrated diagnostic x-ray systems in accordance with ASTM F2547-18 at 90 and 100 kVP, the industry standard for evaluating lead equivalency and radiation attenuation performance. These energies are considered to be representative of those commonly used in medical diagnosis as the standard test method under the jurisdiction of the ASTM Committee on Personal Protective Clothing and Equipment and it’s Subcommittee on Radiological Hazards.

Why it matters:

Testing in accordance with ASTM F2547-18 provides objective verification of radiation attenuation performance. Using a standardized testing method ensures consistent, comparable results across manufacturers and gives healthcare facilities confidence in the protective performance of their equipment.

Results

Testing confirmed that Grab’n Go garment materials passed ASTM F2547-18 attenuation and lead equivalency evaluation across commonly used protection classes, providing clinicians with trusted protection in procedural and imaging environments.
