Proference Biodegradable Nitrile Blue Gloves
Designed with Safety and the Environment in Mind
These gloves are perfect for a range of applications, from medical procedures to food handling. Crafted to meet high medical standards with a 1.5 AQL rating, they are ambidextrous, latex-free, and powder-free, ensuring suitability for various users and scenarios.
What truly sets these gloves apart is their cutting-edge biodegradable technology. Developed with an enzymatic process, these gloves are designed to degrade significantly faster in landfill environments, with an astounding 90% biodegradation in just 490 days, as verified by ASTM D5526 and D5511 tests. This contrasts sharply with traditional nitrile gloves, which may take over a century to decompose.
The biodegradable technology employs a polymerised organic additive, serving as a 'food source' for bacteria in landfills. This additive attracts bacteria which release enzymes to break down the polymer chains, leading to natural degradation without affecting the gloves' quality or shelf life, which remains consistent for up to three years.

Frequently Asked Questions
These gloves are made using a unique enzymatic biodegradable technology. This involves a polymerised 'food source' as an organic additive in the manufacturing process. This additive accelerates the biodegradation of gloves in active landfills and anaerobic digesters.
Yes, they are safe for medical use. These gloves are medical grade with a 1.5 AQL rating, making them suitable for various medical applications.
Absolutely. The gloves are designed to be safe for food handling, meeting the necessary safety standards.
In ASTM testing, these gloves showed a biodegradation rate of 90% in 490 days, a significant improvement over regular nitrile gloves, which can take over 100 years to degrade.
No, the biodegradation process only begins when the gloves are exposed to microbes present in an active landfill environment. They remain stable and retain their physical properties for up to 3 years on the shelf.
These gloves are ambidextrous, latex-free, and powder-free. They feature a beaded cuff to assist with easy donning and prevent roll-down, along with textured fingers for a reliable grip.
Yes, they are designed with the environment in mind. The biodegradable technology ensures they break down quickly in landfill environments, making them a more sustainable option compared to standard nitrile gloves.
BDG (Biodegradable Disposable Glove) technology uses a polymerised 'food source' to attract microbes in landfill sites. These microbes consume the BDG material and release enzymes that break down the polymer chains, allowing for natural degradation.
Yes, BDG technology has been FDA (510k) approved since August 2018, ensuring that the gloves meet rigorous safety and quality standards.
By choosing BDG technology, you're opting for a responsible glove disposal solution and taking a step towards enhancing environmental and green efforts, contributing to a more sustainable future.
