Kimberly-Clark Professional program to recycle cleanroom and laboratory gloves, garments
TerraCycle Kimberly-Clark Professional Include USA
To provide cleanrooms and laboratories with effective solutions to mitigate waste and enhance corporate social responsibility (CSR) and sustainability efforts, Kimberly-Clark Professional recently introduced RightCycle, a program it says is the first large-scale recycling effort for nontraditional cleanroom waste.
The program takes recycling to a new level—beyond downcycling, upcycling and other approaches. It makes it easy to recycle previously hard-to-recycle items like cleanroom garments, gloves, hoods, boot covers and hairnets. Items are deposited in either a RightCycle collection box or in the client's own boxes. Full boxes are assembled onto pallets and picked up by Kimberly-Clark Professional recycling partner TerraCycle.
