Most single-use disposable gloves are made from latex, nitrile or vinyl, which are not biodegradable. This means they can take as long as 100 year or longer to decompose in landfills.
Single-use gloves break down into microplastics, tiny plastic particles, smaller than 5 milimitres in size. These micro particles create significant environmental concern due to their widespread presence and impact on the ecosystem, wildlife and human health.
They are not biodegradable, contributing to landfill waste and potentially harming people, wildlife and ecosystems.
Their production requires significant resources and energy, contributing to environmental pollution and high resource usage.
Some gloves, like latex, can cause allergic reactions, and improper use can lead to cross-contamination.
The cumulative cost of using disposable gloves can be substantial, along with the costs associated with waste management.
Safe disposal, especially in healthcare settings, requires additional resources and protocols.
Dependency on these gloves can lead to shortages in times of high demand, as seen during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Finding the right fit can be a challenge, as tight gloves can cause discomfort and reduce dexterity, while loose gloves impair functionality and safety.
For tasks that require high level of precision and sensitivity, loose gloves can be a hindrance.
