At Uniwipe, we wholeheartedly support the NHS’ ambitions of becoming the world’s first carbon net zero national health system, and we have cost-effective products designed to help achieve this commendable goal.
A significant part of this multi-year plan to reach net zero includes the ‘Gloves Off’ initiative intended to reduce the needless plastic waste associated with single-use disposable gloves when they are not medically necessary.
In this blog post, we dissect our range of UKCA certified Medical Device products, their suitability for NHS medical environments, and how they can support this initiative…
Sustainable and cost-effective Medical Device products
Our specially formulated wipes are suitable for all NHS environments, available on the NHS Supply Chain Catalogue, and are completely safe for use on both skin and surfaces, eliminating the need for single-use gloves.

Moreover, there are additional factors that make Uniwipe an incredibly sustainable choice for the NHS. Each of our meticulously-designed products is manufactured in our dedicated UK facility; by working with a local supplier, the NHS can avoid long transportation distances and can cut its carbon footprint even further.
