Environmentally Friendly Working Gloves Solution From plastic bottle to glove
1,84l VOC VOC VOC VOC VOC VOC CO2 28 g 1,84 l 2,4 g Climate change - a global problem Climate change, pollution of our oceans, and the consumption of fossil resources are a global problem. We, Albert Kerbl GmbH, also want to play our part in putting a stop to these trends, and in maintaining the earth in its present form. This is why we, together with well-known producers, have developed a sustainability concept for gloves: 2.6 recycled plastic bottles are equivalent to 1 pair of ThinkGreen gloves Buying a pair saves 28 g CO2 and 1.84 l water, and avoids the use of 2.4 g VOC (volatile organic compounds).* * THINKGREEN-gloves made with smaller percentage of recycling-polyester safe in ratio less CO2, water and VOC than regular THINKGREEN-gloves made of 100% recycling-polyester
Our approach is not merely restricted to the gloves themselves; instead it goes a step further. It includes Concept Recycled fibres Compliance with the GRS standard (Global Recycling Standard) means that a product must consist of at least 50 % recycled materials. The textile fibres of those THINKGREEN gloves marked with the GRS logo, are in fact made of 100 % recycled polyester. The high content of recycled materials in THINKGREEN gloves is proved by testing institute Intertek, in compliance with the strict criteria of the Global Recycling Standard 4.0. Sustainable paper We take the 4-pillar approach: • Avoid • Reduce • Reuse • Degradable Packaging materials must be harmless for humans and organisms as well. We make every attempt to forgo the use of excessive packaging. Our suppliers have succeeded in obtaining their certification according to FSC-STD-10-004. In order to trace to the source, the certificate number accompany the FSC logo . The cardboard used for product and transport packaging consists of 100 % recycled material. Plastics-free adhesive tapes Instead of the usual plastic adhesive tapes, specially manufactured paper adhesive tapes are used. These contain of 70 % paper, 12 % natural fibres, and 18 % amylose. Green dyes Traditional printings are based on toluene, xylene, industrial alcohols, and other volatile organic compounds, and are extremely harmful to the climate and water. In contrast to this, for our gloves in the THINKGREEN series, environmentally friendly, water-based dyes are used exclusively.
Degradable Platic bag Abrasion resistance(1-4) Cut resistance(1-5) Breaking strength(1-4) Puncture resistance(1-4) Cut resistance(A-F) Biologically degradable plastic bags The plastic bags consist of biologically degradable material (including maize starch and cellulose), and in a natural environment they degrade within 6 months, due to the effects of moisture and light. That’s why we are happy to accept a somewhat milky appearance. Free of harmful substances Your health matters to us. That’s why the THINKGREEN gloves are annually tested on harmful substances year by the Institute Hohenstein against the extensive set of criteria of Oeco-Tex Standard 100. Rest assured of the compatibility of the gloves, both for wearers and the environment. Quality and user comfort The optimum fit and the soft, elastic coating are convincing in everyday and professional use. The gloves are CE-tested according to standard EN388 by notified bodies. THINKGREEN gloves are characterised by high abrasion resistance. SCAN ME Join us on our journey Concept
