# Waste Handling Buckets The GloveBucket can Handle Goo, Grease and Grime By Akihiko Tse | Published 2013-09-30 | Lifestyle Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-glovebucket References: [ohgizmo](http://www.ohgizmo.com/2013/09/25/glovebucket-lets-you-do-messy-jobs-without-getting-messy-yourself/) & [glovebucket](http://www.glovebucket.com/index.html) The GloveBucket is essentially a portable science lab waiting for creative destruction to happen. The square, 5-gallon polyethylene bucket has a removable transparent acrylic lid and two holes on the side where you can fit your hands into a pair of pre-attached heavy-duty rubber gloves. Priced at $49, the glove is especially useful if you need to perform any messy handiwork that threatens to dirty your plain clean clothes. Once the acrylic lid is shut, the bucket is completely sealed off, meaning any mess or dirt that remains inside cannot spurt out. The GloveBucket can have anything from goo to grime inside, and can be easily washed off. The GloveBucket is sure to become an essential piece of equipment to save clothes from even the odd, minute splatter of paint of grease. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 0.8/10 - Popularity: 4% | Activity: 12% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) > [Health](https://www.trendhunter.com/health) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Portable Workstation Buckets:** Opportunity to incorporate additional features such as LED lighting or tool holders into the bucket design. - **Eco-friendly Waste Handling:** Opportunity to create a sustainable version of the GloveBucket made from recycled materials that would appeal to environmentally conscious consumers. - **Contactless Waste Handling:** Opportunity to create a GloveBucket with a remote-controlled lid to reduce contact with potentially hazardous materials. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Construction:** The GloveBucket could appeal to construction workers who frequently deal with messy, hazardous materials and could benefit from an all-in-one portable solution. - **Automotive Maintenance:** The GloveBucket could be marketed to automotive enthusiasts as a convenient way to handle messy car repairs and maintenance. - **Cleaning Services:** Professional cleaning services could benefit from the GloveBucket's portability and mess-containment features to improve their efficiency and cleanliness. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Bucket-Stool Hybrid Models](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/yeti-2.md) - [Contemporary Colorful Bucket Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hachiman-bucket.md) - [Grab-and-Go Glove Packs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/glove-packs.md) - [Giftable Hand-Shielding Lotion Kits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gloves-in-a-bottle.md) - [Protective Work Glove Liners](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hud-liner.md) - [Compact Hand Lotion Kits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/travel-minis.md) - [Knitted Chicken Bucket Covers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bucket-hugger.md) - [Portable Cleaning Devices](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cleanguard.md) - [Weighted Training Gloves](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/powerhandz.md)
