protecting planet Sustainability at uvex safety Material Products featuring this symbol contain bio-based materials, materials that can be composted at home or recycled materials. Recycled materials covers both post-consumer recycling materials (PCR) and post-industrial recycling materials (PIR). Circular economy Products featuring this symbol are, for example, designed to last for a particularly long time, recyclable, intended to be used a second time or able to be repaired. Packaging Product packaging featuring this symbol is made of, for example, 100% recycled materials or materials that can be composted at home. Carbon footprint We calculate the product-specific greenhouse gas emissions using the methods set out in the ISO 14067 standard. Calculation method: IPCC 2021 GWP100 (based on ISO 14067); SimaPro with ecoinvent database; Scope: Cradle-to-Customer; The CO2 values provided were valid at the time of calculation and may be subject to change due to database or methodology updates. 4 hexagons increased transparency about the product Every action we take leaves behind a carbon footprint. We can help reduce this carbon footprint by choosing uvex safety gloves. How? The uvex phynomic XG, for example, is the ideal combination of sustainable materials and durability. Both help protect the environment. The fabric, which makes up more than 50% of the total product weight, is made of recycled polyamide material. This has reduced the carbon footprint by 20% to just 0.28 kg CO₂e (04/2024) when compared to the previous version without recycled polyamide material. The packaging is also made of 100% paper and cardboard. 106
