Description
GloveOn Avalon Nitrile Exam Gloves offer an innovative solution for environmentally conscious professionals. These gloves are crafted from synthetic nitrile polymer, providing a durable and reliable barrier for various applications while being completely powder-free and non-sterile.
Biodegradability
One of the standout features of these gloves is their ability to biodegrade in landfill and anaerobic digester environments. Unlike conventional nitrile gloves, they break down significantly faster, thanks to an organic additive that attracts landfill-specific microbes. This process converts the glove material into harmless byproducts such as CO₂, H₂O, and CH₄, leaving no toxic residue behind.
Design and Comfort
- Color: Violet blue
- Texture: Fingertip textured for enhanced grip
- Cuff: Standard/beaded cuff
- Ambidextrous Design: Suitable for all users
These gloves are not made with natural rubber latex, minimizing the risk of allergic reactions. Their biocompatibility ensures they are non-cytotoxic, non-irritating, and non-sensitizing, making them safe for extended use.
