-**Reusable**
+**Reusability facilitated by autoclaving**
 reusable PPE can reduce waste if PPE is made from materials that can be autoclaved. Increasing access to autoclaves is something that the Fab Lab network may be able to play a role in, with the most promising decentralized technology being stovetop and solar autoclaves. In addition, making reusable PPE from materials that can be autoclaved would also be a key intervention. Would appreciate other's input and feedback in developing this further.
