Ecotek Clinical Dentistry Gloves
by mdsassociatesSustainable Nitrile Exam Gloves for Clinical Dentistry
Dental Universities Will Appreciate These Affordable FDA 510K Approved EcoTek® Biodegradable Latex-Free Examination Gloves for Their Clinics.
Dental universities throughout the United States offer specialized education and training for aspiring dental professionals.
Part of the curriculum includes educating students about the proper use of personal protective equipment (P.P.E.) such as facemasks, face shields, protective isolation gowns and single-use nitrile examination gloves.
A GROWING CONCERN
The extensive use of predominantly non-degradable P.P.E. is wreaking havoc on the planet leading to an accumulation of waste in landfills, with potential consequences for leachates and the bioaccumulation of microplastics.
Diverting and treating 180 billion pairs (one million tons) of industry residues while exploring more environmentally friendly alternatives, such as biodegradable P.P.E. is now crucial as experts predict that the United States is on track to run out of capacity in landfills by the year 2036.
SUSTAINABLE LATEX-FREE GLOVE SOLUTIONS
MDS Associates is thrilled to announce that clinical directors, Infection Control officers, dental students and faculty now have sustainable and affordable single-use hand protection options for their dental clinics. A new ERA in sustainability shopping has arrived and it is ushering new landfill-friendly, incinerator-friendly and skin-friendly FDA approved single-use nitrile medical exam gloves that perform like conventional counterparts without busting budgets or sacrificing protection, comfort, or performance.
