Biodegradable glove
Globus, the organisation is said to have introduced the world’s first disposable nitrile glove, N-DEX, has now launched what is claims is the world’s first biodegradable nitrile disposable glove in the UK and Ireland.

GREEN-DEX (a Showa Best product) biodegrades in biologically-active landfill sites, thus providing an effective single-use hand protection solution as well as the ability to boost a company’s green credentials and reduce its recycling costs.
The ‘biodegradable’ characteristic is made possible by the innovative Eco Best Technology (EBT). The EBT organic additive is designed to make GREEN-DEX attractive to microbial activity in a landfill. Upon consumption of the EBT formulation, micro-organisms excrete enzymes that depolymerise the nitrile.
