Get a Grip on Landfill with Dexterity® S15OFNT Work Gloves
Sustainable Work Gloves That Biodegrade in Landfill
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
When industrial work gloves are no longer useful, most workers simply toss the gloves into the garbage wh
ere it is destined to be buried in landfill. Unfortunately studies have shown conventional work gloves require centuries to fully break down, adding to the neverending battle against plastic pollution.. Compounding this is the growing problem of micro-plastic pollution that threatens the health of humans and animals.
Because conventional gloves are dipped or coated with a synthetic rubber compound (polymer synthesized from petroleum byproduct) it’s very resistant to microbial attack and consequently delays degradation or decomposition. Unfortunately, millions of work gloves are buried into landfill every year and this waste disposal problem has spurred mounting interest in the biodegradability of polymers used in glove coatings.
SUSTAINABLE HAND PROTECTION
In an attempt to become more environmentally responsible, Superior Glove® has added the Dexterity® S15OFNT Work Glove to its sustainable hand protection portfolio that decomposes into natural soil with within 1-5 years.
HOW IT WORKS
After much hard work and research, a special additive was discovered to create a biodegradable polymer that when disposed in biologically-active landfill, microorganisms consume and metabolize the glove materials into three natural compounds — organic soil, methane and carbon dioxide. This creates healthy fertilizer and leaves zero waste behind. And here’s the best news, the glove’s physical and protective properties are not altered in any way – the performance, fit and appearance remains exactly the same as its competitive counterpart.
DIVERT LANDFILL
A new era in hand protection has arrived and it allows facilities to protect their workforce while preserving the planet for future generations. The glove engineers at Superior Glove® have elevated the bar on general-duty work gloves and created the biodegradable Dexterity® S15OFNT seamless knit palm coated glove.
