TD02 SUSTAIN KEY FEATURES

SO, WHY SHOULD YOU USE TD02 SUSTAIN OVER NITRILE DISPOSABLE GLOVES?

  • Traditional nitrile gloves can take over 100 years to biodegrade on landfills, whereas the TD02 biodegrades by an impressive 82% within 90 days, and is industrially compostable.
  • Traditional nitrile disposable gloves have a heavy carbon footprint, but we've changed the ingredients of the TD02 to a far lighter, more sustainable and measurable carbon footprint, which also comes in recyclable packaging.
  • Many disposable gloves are made in China which has a greater downstream shipping CO2e footprint for UK customers. TD02 is made in Sri Lanka where we use a high content of raw material sustainably produced locally within our supply chain, resulting in a lower carbon footprint within production.
  • TD02 Sustain is a tri-polymer disposable glove meaning only a small portion of the disposable glove is made up of nitrile, essentially meaning that the percentage of petrochemicals released into the atmosphere is significantly lower than that of a nitrile disposable glove. To be more precise, 85% less energy is used per tonne to process natural rubber compared to synthetic rubber (nitrile).
