Sustainability is key with tough, recycled gloves
For gardeners who care about the environment (and who doesn’t), Town & Country has launched a range of gardening gloves made from ocean waste plastic.
The Eco-Flex range aims to give gardeners a choice of tough, long-lasting gardening gloves. By choosing them, it will reduce the use of single-use plastic. While the entire Eco-Flex range is made from ocean waste, you don’t have to choose the environment over practicality. The gloves will be available to buy in garden centres from August.
The collection encompasses four new pairs of gloves made from recycled materials for a variety of different gardening needs and in a range of different sizes and colours. Here are some propagation tools and boots and wellies from Town & Country.
