U.S. Workwear & Glove Recycling: Sustainable Waste Management Service Expands

Libra Industrial Solutions expands its industrial glove and personal protective equipment recycling program, as it marks 55 years of operation.

-- With the newly expanded program from Libra Industrial Solutions, the company now supports a range of washable PPE types, including cut-resistant coated gloves, leather gloves, aprons, and workwear to help manufacturers and facility managers better control PPE-related costs while reducing the volume of disposable safety supplies entering landfills.

Across industrial and manufacturing environments, gloves and protective equipment represent a recurring operational expense, with industry estimates indicating that roughly 1.8 billion PPE units are required annually across U.S. workplaces. A significant portion of these items are discarded after limited use, contributing to ongoing waste-management challenges for facilities operating at scale.

Through its program, built on over five decades of experience in glove and PPE recycling, Libra helps participating facilities across the country reduce procurement volume, stabilize spending on essential safety supplies, and limit the disposal of reusable materials. The company reports that its recycling programs have contributed to more than $160 million in cumulative customer cost avoidance and diverted over 11 million pounds of waste from landfills.

The programs are structured to support ongoing reuse within industrial settings, shifting recycling from a one-off effort into a repeatable operational process. Used gloves and protective equipment are collected, processed, and returned for continued use where appropriate, allowing facilities to lower replacement demand while maintaining established safety and hygiene standards.

“Over the years, we’ve seen that consistent recycling programs can deliver meaningful cost and waste reductions when they’re built into daily processes,” a company representative said. “The data reflects what can be achieved when reuse is treated as a long-term operational strategy rather than a temporary measure.”

Libra's program supports facilities in meeting environmental, social, and governance objectives while addressing the operational challenges of industrial PPE consumption and disposal.

Founded in 1969, Libra Industrial Solutions has expanded its services alongside changes in industrial safety requirements and environmental expectations. Its recycling programs now support a broad range of glove and PPE types used across multiple industrial sectors throughout the United States, with program data helping organizations track performance, assess reuse potential, and make more informed purchasing decisions over time.
