Zero In On Zero Waste

Video that gives an overview of the recycling program by RightCycle and how it helps with waste reduction

The RightCycle™ Program by Ansell is a ground-breaking landfill diversion program 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!

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ's)

How does The RightCycle™ Program work?
Implementation is easy. Customers collect qualifying Ansell branded PPE in their facilities. The items are then shipped to our service providers in a Gaylord box 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 or processed into Alternative Engineered Fuels (AEFs).
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™ Program 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.
