Fairtrade natural rubber gardening gloves
These hard-wearing rubber gloves have elasticated cuffs, are thorn proof and long lasting.
These universal gardening gloves are with rubber from a responsibly managed plantation. They are fairtrade, vegan, reusable, biodegradable and compostable!
They are extremely comfortable to wear and offer grip when both wet and dry due to the textured surface of the gloves.
Traidcraft’s gloves are made by small-scale farmers in Sri Lanka. The farmers are educated on the best ways to tap rubber and care for trees, as well as how to prepare and manage their land, and they receive a premium for the sale of the gloves.
Traidcraft provided the farmers with additional training in business management, and provided capital to the farmer associations, helping them establish savings and loan funds in their villages.
Always use a separate pair of gloves for dishwashing versus all other cleaning.
The outer packaging can be recycled at supermarkets, for example, just like bread bags.
Latex can cause allergic reactions.

Our Mission: "To improve the livelihoods of disadvantaged people in developing countries, benefiting local community projects and keeping alive traditional skills that would otherwise be lost."
Shared Earth's policy is to provide quality, design-led products, not just to those who are already aware of Fair Trade principles. With Fair Trade sales showing no sign of slowing, more and more employment is being provided for artisans in developing countries, many of who would otherwise be out of work. At a time when global conflict seems also on the increase, Shared Earth's partnerships with producers are an invaluable way of building bridges, showing that people can work together for mutual benefit, no matter what their race, religion or culture.
