Sustainability

Moving towards sustainable medical devices

The challenge

Sustainable and environmentally conscious procedures continue to be a challenge for the medical products and services industry. Products used in healthcare are often not re-usable or recyclable, due to health and safety regulations and requirements. As a result, regulated medical waste (RMW) is an escalating problem worldwide. 

Cleaning and sterilising medical spaces and equipment is also an intensive process requiring high levels of energy, cleaning chemicals and water. However, as the pressure mounts on the environment, the challenge to make the health industry more sustainable and environmentally focused increases.
