Demystify: 
We have looked into a number of solutions. Kimberly Clark recycles only their gloves, because they have knowledge of their composition and can properly recycle them. You also have to pay postage.

There is a solution by Gamma Carbin for any brand of nitrile gloves, but again, it costs.

TerraCycle may have options.

And then there is the task of finding information on the final reuse of the gloves, but I guess that's for another conversation.

I have heard that a service like this is offered through Fisher Scientific and Kimberly Clark, but I do not know of any labs that have successfully used these services: https://www.fishersci.com/shop/products/disposable-gloves-zero-waste-box-3/p-7214992

Does anyone know of any company that recycles nitrile gloves or nitrile components? If so, please let me know. We are looking for collaborators or people we can reach out to in industry and business.
