- Description
- Specification
Biodegradable gloves are made with a unique tri-polymer that ensures they break down much faster than traditional nitrile gloves and even other biodegradable nitrile gloves!
- Made with a unique tri-polymer material which allows the gloves to break down an impressive 82% within just 90 days (ISO 14885). They’re also very well suited for industrial composting
- Traffi are a certified carbon-neutral manufacturer - gloves are made in Sri Lanka rather than China as many other gloves are - using a high content of raw material sustainably produced locally within the supply chain results in a lower carbon footprint within production
- The tri-polymer material means the percentage of synthetic rubber (nitrile) is lower than other gloves. 85% less energy is used per tonne to process natural rubber compared to synthetic rubber
- Outer packaging is recyclable
- It’s cooler to the skin, thanks to the new 3TP technology composing of natural rubber latex, nitrile & neoprene
- Fully textured finish provides excellent grip while maintaining dexterity, allowing for a wide range of tasks
- Beaded cuff increases strength, aids in donning and can help to prevent liquid rollback
- Ambidextrous design reduces waste as you don’t need to discard a paired glove if you only require one for a task
- Food approved: EN1186 / Regulation EU 10/2011
- Chemical resistant to EN 374-1, 2, 4 and 5
- AQL 1.5 and certified as medical grade to EN455 Parts 1, 2 and 3

Our Opinion
TraffiGlove are certified carbon neutral company manufacturing product in Sri Lanka using more natural rubber and less synthetic rubber in their production process. The gloves have an active ingredient in them added during the production process which significantly increases the rate of degradation. Plastics marketed as "biodegradable" will contribute to plastic pollution if they are lost or littered. We should be mindful that they do not break down as quickly and completely in the environment as the term might imply and thus can harm wildlife and ecosystems. But if disposed of correctly there is proof that biodegradable plastics may provide a net benefit to the environment, especially when viewed in the context of millions of items of disposable clothing and PPE ending up in landfill every year. We must also consider the intended use of the products before celebrating that they're biodegradable. If gloves have been used for medical purposes they may need to go into clinical waste rather than landfill and would actually be incinerated regardless. Equally, if they are very heavily soiled or covered in oils/solvents, realistically this may also reduce their ability to biodegrade. Disposable gloves are often essential for a number of tasks and these represent a big step forward over typical options - however, it may be more eco friendly to consider using reusable gloves if safe and viable to do so.
