Complimenting a diverse line of industrial work safety gloves, MDS is proud to distribute the full line of SHOWA® glove protection products that includes the first of its kind single-use biodegradable latex-free nitrile gloves.

SHOWA® has developed the world’s first disposable nitrile glove and the industry’s first biodegradable product line with their Eco Best Technology® (EBT). EBT offers the solution that makes a difference to the environment, without any compromise on protection and performance for the user.

They have achieved the GreenCircle Certification for 8 protective gloves that meet all the necessary qualifications to be certified for biodegradable claims.
