28 Concept Our approach is not merely restricted to the gloves themselves; instead it goes a step further. It includes: Recycled fibres The textile fibres used in our gloves in the THINKGREEN range are mostly made from 100 % recycled polyester. 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. 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 Öko-Tex Standard 100. Rest assured of the compatibility of the gloves, both for wearers and the environment. Abrasion resistance (0-4) Cut resistance (0-5) Breaking strength (0-4) Puncture resistance (0-4) Cut resistance (A-F) 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 Accompany us on our journey THINKGREEN 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. Degradable Platic bag
