Kimberly-Clark Professional and Terracycle recycle more than 90 tons of garments and gloves

June 24, 2014

green Kimberly-Clark Professional, a global leader in cleanroom and laboratory contamination control garments, has helped divert 137,000 pounds of disposable garments and 45,000 pounds of nitrile gloves from landfills through its innovative large-scale recycling program called RightCycle by Kimberly-Clark Professional.

The RightCycle by Kimberly-Clark Professional program allows cleanroom employees to conveniently deposit used gloves, hoods, boot covers and hairnets in collection boxes where they are then delivered to recycling pioneer and partner, TerraCycle. TerraCycle transforms these otherwise landfill-bound items into useable products such as composite decking, park benches, and Adirondack chairs.
