 SUFFERING FROM GLOVE DISPOSAL GUILT?

__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Single-use gloves are critical contamination control P.P.E. (Personal Protection Equipment) in many lines of work.  An estimated 100 billion pairs of disposable gloves are tossed in the garbage each year resulting in piles of hand protection in landfill. While we appreciate the protection they provide, it can feel very wasteful disposing several pair per day, or tossing after very short uses. This “Glove Guilt” is actually founded in science; disposable gloves can take hundreds of years to break down, greatly contributing to landfill.

Many workplaces, especially labs and medical facilities, struggle with the disposal of hard to recycle gloves as part of their Corporate Social Responsibility environmental sustainability initiatives. What if there was a better way? What if there was a biodegradable line of disposable gloves made with special additives that begins to break down in just a few months in landfill?

If you wear disposable gloves and feel guilty every time you toss yours into the garbage, then you need to consider our GreenCircle® certified biodegradable single-use hand protection products featuring Eco Best Technology® (EBT).

Eliminate the “Glove Guilt” associated with glove disposal! Our latex-free gloves with EBT offer the same protection, performance and grip as their regular glove counterparts, but are better for the planet! EBT offers the solution that makes a difference to the environment, without any compromise on protection and performance for the user.

SHOWA® THE ORIGINAL INVENTOR OF NITRILE GLOVES

Taking the next step in sustainability, SHOWA® brand of single-use nitrile gloves have achieved the GreenCircle® certification for single-use gloves that meet all the necessary qualifications to be certified for biodegradable claims. The ASTM D5526 certification demonstrated that SHOWA® EBT single-use nitrile gloves achieved 82% biodegradation in only 386 days, while gloves without EBT achieved only 1.9% biodegradation over the same period of time.

SHOWA® biodegradable gloves are manufactured with a unique low-modulus formulation that utilizes hand heat to soften the compound so that it molds to the hand and fingers as it is worn. Many SHOWA® EBT Gloves  comply with Federal regulations for food contact 21CFR, 177.2600 and are certified to resist fentanyl, and carfentavil per the ASTM D6978-05 testing standard.
