Upgrade Your Hand Protection and Join the Sustainability Revolution

Ready to enhance your workplace safety while making a positive environmental impact?

The PPE Group is excited to invite you to their exclusive giveaway at the Workplace Health & Safety Show in Sydney on October 22-23, 2025. Visit their Stand C20 with your used gloves, and we’ll recycle them through our innovative 360processed end-of-life solution.

In return, you’ll receive a brand-new pair of our high-quality Enviro gloves – choose from general purpose or cut-resistant options. This simple swap not only upgrades your hand protection but also enters you into a draw to win a premium PPE Pack valued at over $400, packed with essential safety gear to keep your team protected.

Participating is straightforward and rewarding. Simply bring any used gloves (non-hazardous, of course) to Stand C20 during the show. Their team will handle the recycling process on-site, demonstrating our commitment to circular economy principles. By handing over your old PPE, you’re directly contributing to waste reduction efforts. The draw for the PPE Pack will be conducted at the end of the event, with winners notified via email or phone. It’s a win-win: you get immediate value with new gloves, and a chance at an even bigger prize, all while supporting sustainable practices.

At the heart of this offer is the groundbreaking 360processed program, designed to tackle the growing challenge of PPE waste in industries like construction, mining, and manufacturing. Partnering with Upparel, Australia’s leading textile recycler, 360processed provides a turnkey, end-to-end recycling service that diverts PPE from landfills and transforms it into valuable new materials. Here’s how it works in 3 easy steps:

  1. First, they collect your waste PPE onsite using flexible options like cartons, boxes, or skip bins tailored to your business size – for instance, their BoxUP service handles up to 200kg across 12 boxes.
  2. Next, the materials are transported to their secure Melbourne facility for sorting and processing.
  3. There, items are upcycled into reusable products, such as Uptex fabric for construction applications, all processed locally to minimise carbon emissions and support Australian jobs.

What sets 360processed apart is its transparency and measurable impact. Participants receive quarterly reports detailing carbon footprint savings, waste diversion metrics, and recycling outcomes, helping businesses meet ESG goals and comply with sustainability regulations. For sensitive items like branded workwear, they offer secure, live-streamed destruction to protect your intellectual property. Since launching, the program has expanded to cover a wide range of PPE, including hand protection, headgear, eyewear, clothing, face shields, footwear, and flame-resistant workwear, with more categories in development.

The PPE Group is deeply committed to reducing our environmental footprint through innovative waste management. Traditional PPE disposal contributes massively to landfill pollution, billions of items end up buried each year, leaching harmful chemicals and wasting resources. By pioneering programs like 360processed, they’re closing the loop: recycling PPE back into raw materials, cutting greenhouse gas emissions, and promoting a circular economy. The PPE Group local focus ensures lower transport emissions compared to overseas recycling, while partnerships like Upparel enable high-efficiency upcycling. This isn’t just about compliance; it’s about leading the industry toward a greener future, where safety and sustainability go hand in hand.
