This month, the spotlight on sustainability falls on the Unigloves BioTouch Biodegradable Nitrile Gloves – an innovative solution helping reduce the environmental impact of single-use PPE, without compromising on performance or protection.
Unlike traditional nitrile gloves, which can take over 100 years to break down, the BioTouch glove has been scientifically proven to biodegrade by 81% within just 490 days under active landfill conditions, with full decomposition occurring in under five years.
This significant reduction in degradation time is thanks to advanced biodegradable technology that only activates once the glove enters an active landfill, ensuring product stability during use and storage.
The Unigloves BioTouch Biodegradable Nitrile Gloves don't just lead in sustainability — they also meets the strict standards required in professional environments:
- AQL 1.5: Compliant with medical standards for pinholes
- EN374 Type B: Offer resistance against a broad range of chemicals
- EN1186: Approved for contact with all food types
- ASTM D5511 & ASTM D5526: Tested to internationally recognised biodegradation standards
As laboratories and workplaces continue to seek more sustainable practices, small changes like switching to biodegradable gloves can make a significant difference over time.
Unigloves BioTouch Biodegradable Nitrile Gloves are now available in BACK2BASICS at an exclusive 30% OFF– with prices starting from just £81.00 per pack of 1000.
