Portwest^_®Planet Industrial Work Gloves withEco-Technology

BIO-BASED FIBER TECHNOLOGIES IN INDUSTRIAL HAND PROTECTION IS REDUCING STOCKPILES OF RECYCLED P.E.T WATER BOTTLES & REDUCING RELIANCE ON FOSSIL FUEL!

Americans buy 50 billion water bottles a year or 100 million plastic water bottles per day.Unfortunately 86% of plastic water bottles end up in landfill and it takes at least 1000 years to decompose, leaching pollutants andmicro-plasticinto our soil and waterways. As a result, U.S. landfills are overflowing with 2 million tons of discarded water bottles.

There’s one corporation listening and doing their part to reduce their carbon footprint and reliance on fossil fuel based resources ...AND reducing stockpiles of useless P.E.T. water bottles!

In an attempt to rid single use plastic from our supply chains and as a way of “protecting our planet”,Portwest®, a 120 year old global manufacturer of workwear, safety gear and PPE (Personal Protection Equipment) new to U.S.A.)has recently introduced a new range of Eco-conscious products referred to asPortwest® Planet'.

Portwest’s main aim is to minimize the impact that their operations have on the environment and the natural resources they consume and are dedicated to decreasing plastics from global supply chains but increasing the use ofsustainable and recycled材料的制造和包装的eir products.

SUSTAINABLE GLOVE SHELL

Portwest® has proudly created a line of sustainable industrial hand protection. The Portwest® Planet portfolio of work gloves feature bio-based fibers created from 100% P.E.T. consumer plastic waste or bamboo viscose that’s blended with recycled polyester to create a comfortable, long-lasting glove shell.

• BAMBOO FABRIC:Bamboo viscose is a natural textile made from the pulp of bamboo grass. Bamboo used to produce fabrics is a sustainable crop and easily replenished and capable of self-regeneration that requires no fertilizer to grow. Bamboo grows in depleted soil and helps return vital nutrients to the soil and most importantly, is biodegradable.

• P.E.T. PLASTIC:The use of recycled polyester produced from P.E.T. bottles, requires fewer resources than that of new fibers and generates fewer CO2 emissions. And it can be recycled again closing the loop. In addition, diverting P.E.T. bottles from landfill reduces soil contamination, air and water pollution from toxic micro-plastic.
