New Exam Gloves by Kimberly-Clark: Recyclable, Space Saving and Waste Reducing

April 3, 2015

New Kimberly-Clark Spring Green and Kimberly-Clark Forest Green Nitrile Exam Gloves deliver a range of benefits including enhanced dexterity, strong wet and dry grip, and a way to reduce lab waste. The gloves are food handling certified as well as comfortable and sustainable. They cut waste and save space through environmentally responsible packaging that provides 100 percent more gloves per case, more storage space and significantly less waste by weight, compared with leading competitive gloves.

Recyclable via the RightCycle Program

After use, these gloves won’t go to waste. They can be diverted from landfills by recycling them through RightCycle by Kimberly-Clark Professional, the first large-scale recycling program for nonhazardous lab and cleanroom waste. Lab gloves make up a significant portion of a facility’s solid waste stream. In one research lab, gloves contributed 22 percent of the total waste generated.

RightCycle turns used gloves and garments into raw materials to create eco-friendly consumer products and durable goods.
