Zero In On Zero Waste

rightcycle europe

The RightCycle™ Programme by Ansell is a ground-breaking landfill diversion programme designed to meet the waste management needs of Industrial Manufacturing and Life Science facilities. Disposable PPE is a necessity in these industries, but it often ends up in the landfill. What if used PPE could be recovered and transformed into something powerful? Let us show you how!

Please note that service availability may vary depending on your location.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ's)

How does The RightCycle™ Programme work?
Implementation is easy. Customers collect qualifying Ansell branded PPE in their facilities. The items are then shipped to our service providers in a Bulk bag on a pallet, using the customer's preferred carrier. The used products are converted into plastic pellets that are used to produce new consumer goods.
How much does it cost?
There is no cost to participate in the program. The only direct expense is that you must pay to ship used products to our service providers, using your preferred carrier.
How do I know that The RightCycle™ Programme is a legitimate landfill diversion solution?
We are transparent about the processes and provide you with details on what is occurring at every step. We annually audit our partners and verify all process claims through 3rd parties.
Is it possible for me to tour your Partners' facilities?
Absolutely! We are happy to hold in-person, on-site audits or arrange for a virtual tour. Please submit your request with your sales representative.
