Fikile's Eco-Friendly PPE Brand Fits 'Like A Glubb'

At the height of the Covid-19 pandemic, personal protective equipment (PPE) like medical grade gloves flew off the shelves in an effort to keep ourselves and our loved ones safe. But PPE supplies aren't exactly eco-friendly. In fact, 100 billion pairs of single use gloves end up in landfills every year, and they take over 100 years to break down. Fikile Mthwalo came up with a solution — Glubbs. This biodegradable alternative breaks down 10x faster than conventional rubber gloves. Tune in to learn how Fikile, a Brooklyn based creative/star of stage and screen, tapped into her passion for the environment, entrepreneurship and her artistic savvy to not only protect us from harmful germs, bacteria and viruses — but also reduce our carbon footprint (and look stylish while doing it!).
