Eagle Direct Ltd (Eagle Group) Sustainability Actions

Published impact reports

The 2023 Impact Report says Eagle Protect is committed to raising industry standards in safety, sustainability, and ethical sourcing, and that it is sharing the positive changes driven in the year’s impact report. The 2022 Impact Report says the company is partnering with customers to reduce the footprint of disposable products and supply chain.

Reduced glove waste

Eagle Protect says it reduces environmental impact by offering higher-quality gloves that reduce glove consumption, waste and packaging. It states that a thinner glove can reduce a company’s glove consumption by up to 30%, and that lighter gloves can create 50% less waste upon disposal compared with standard gloves.

Stopped supplying vinyl gloves

The company says it ceased supplying vinyl gloves in 2016 due to safety concerns, including long-term environmental effects and food safety concerns. It says it continues to focus on sustainable practices that reduce environmental impact throughout its supply chain.

Uses supply chain audits

Eagle Protect says its transparent supply chain includes factory audits, stringent safety standards, third-party lab testing, environmental requirements and more. It also says it works with independent third-party audit firms via the Sedex platform and has its own Supplier Code of Conduct for manufacturers.

Introduced recycling programs

The company says it has a recycling program for thermoplastic elastomer (TPE) gloves and that poly gloves such as Eagle STRETCHPoly and TPE gloves are 100% recyclable, subject to local recycling capability. It also says poly gloves and pallet wrap can be recycled through specific programs such as Revolution Bag.

Measured waste savings

Eagle Protect says that in 2020 it saved 738,775lbs of waste. It also says it measures impact through glove waste annually and looks at customer savings from changing from thicker and heavier products to lighter and thinner gloves.
