Infection Control

At Polyco Healthline, we understand the need to reduce our waste as much as possible to support our sustainability goals, as recently outlined in our #phAMBITION project. We have set ourselves targets to reach by 2030 to address the key sustainability impacts and opportunities throughout our value chain.

#phAMBITION is Polyco Healthline's new sustainability programme. It aims to build upon our sustainability successes so far and set new targets and goals whilst unlocking the power of change. Our programme is aimed at addressing the social and environmental challenges of the next decade with commitments to improve the lives and wellbeing of our people with the smallest environmental footprint.

We have been identifying the areas where we need to make the most changes to reduce our CO2 footprint. Our pursuit of Zero Waste, Say 'No' to plastics and Energy efficiency stems from this. Our strategy is focused on addressing key sustainability impacts and opportunities throughout our value chain.

The global Covid-19 pandemic has accelerated innovations and brought opportunities for product enhancements.

Polyco Heallthline teamed up with industry experts to develop a range of gloves treated with Sanitized AG antimicrobial additive. The additive inhibits microbial activity improving the hygiene of the products.

The Sanitized® hygiene treatment protects the gloves from microbial growth, odours and provides long lasting material protection.

Microbes can infect people when they touch their face, and the most common ways a glove user will touch their face is when they wipe sweat away with the fabric back of the glove or remove the gloves to touch their face with their bare hand. Our Sanitized® Glove Range will provide some protection in both instances.

Furthermore, viruses need a living host; by inhibiting the amount of bacteria on the glove surface, the chance of reproduction of viruses on a glove surface is then significantly reduced.

Stock of our Sanitized® Glove Range is now available.
