The inventors of the world’s first disposable nitrile glove, N-DEX®,
The inventors of the world’s first disposable nitrile glove, N-DEX®,
now bring you the world’s first biodegradable disposable nitrile glove,
GREEN-DEX™. Showa Best Glove’s Research & Development reaches
a major breakthrough with ECO BEST TECHNOLOGY™ (EBT).
EBT accelerates the biodegradation of nitrile in biologically active landfills
and anaerobic digesters as validated by independent certified laboratories
using internationally recognized test methods. EBT is composed of organic
materials designed to make GREEN-DEX™ attractive to microbial activity.
These microorganisms upon consuming the EBT material excrete enzymes
that depolymerize the nitrile. The final result is biogases and inert humus.
Regular nitrile gloves cannot attract enough (if any) microbial activity
to begin breaking down the polymer’s molecular structure, thus leaving
the process of reclamation to light, heat, mechanical stress and moisture.
An innovative and truly groundbreaking characteristic of EBT is the ability
to maintain the same physical properties (texture, appearance, etc.) as
regular nitrile gloves and can be used in the same applications with
no loss of performance.
