The suit already cleared the testing for protection against synthetic blood which has exceeded the criteria defined for body suits by the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare (MoHFW).
It should be noted that M/s Kusumgarh Industries is producing the raw material, and coating material for this bio suit while the complete suit is being manufactured with the help of another vendor.
