SHOWA Group biodegradable nitrile gloves

Friday, 06 May, 2022 | Supplied by: Blackwoods


The SHOWA Group provides an extensive range of biodegradable hand protection. Using its innovative Eco Best Technology (EBT), SHOWA has designed gloves that decompose in biologically active landfills, as opposed to the 100-year decomposition of regular nitrile gloves.

EBT is incorporated into the construction of the glove; when the gloves are disposed, they are transferred and discarded into biologically active landfills, where microorganisms break them down. Organic soil, water and bio-gas are produced during the decomposition process. This leads to zero waste; the bio-gas can also potentially be used as a renewable energy source.

EBT gloves are designed to create less of a footprint after-use, without losing their critical safety features. The gloves can be used in the mining, food preparation and chemical manufacturing industries, and are designed to provide the same level of protection as standard nitrile gloves.
