Science - Chemistry; Chem Sci/Eng / protective clothing
Italian term or phrase: Falda impermeabile
One of the items of protective clothing etc. to be used when handling cyanide compounds:

Face mask
Nitrile gloves
Falda impermeabile

Because of the context, I'm inclined to think waterproof apron etc. but could it be waterproof sheeting?

My disctionary has "skirt" a a translation for falda.

Any suggestions?
