EcoTek Biodegradability Technology

EcoTek Biodegradable Gloves

Available in many popular PowerForm^® single-use styles, EcoTek^® is a proprietary nitrile treatment that accelerates breakdown in landfills. SW^® nitrile gloves with EcoTek biodegrade by 92.6% in only 2 years and 6 months under test method ASTM D5526-12, a standard test method for determining anaerobic biodegradation of plastics in accelerated landfill conditions. Current biodegradation results do not predict future results.
