[Che-student-staff-list] RightCycle - first shipment net weight and winner of lawn chair

[Nagy, Gabriela]

Hello everyone,

Last month on September 16 we shipped our first RightCycle gaylord full of safety gloves collected in our labs since we joined the program on October 25, 2023.
With this shipment we diverted an impressive 642 pounds of safety gloves from landfill! Thank you to all researchers who contributed to this achievement!

During the "Fit&Fill for safety gloves" event on September 4 we had the full gaylord on display in the atrium and participants were encouraged to guess the total net weight of the gloves for a chance to win a lawn chair made of plastic form recycled gloves, provided by Ansell for this activity. I am happy to announce that the winner of the chair is Neresh Dhanwani, whose guess of 700 pounds is the closest to the actual weight (642 pounds). Congratulations, Naresh!

Thank you all for your efforts in increasing sustainability in our labs!
Gabriela
