Our medical device recycling service covers non-infected electrical healthcare and laboratory equipment from professional organisations, including analysers, medical monitors and other retired devices. Equipment replacements can generate a range of sizes and electrical components, some containing batteries or stored information. Describe the devices and confirm their contamination status when enquiring so the collection scope can be reviewed. Infected or clinical items are excluded.
Healthcare, laboratory and research organisations can enquire about collections of non-infected electrical medical equipment. Clinical, contaminated or infected items are excluded.

Managing non-infected electrical medical equipment
We arrange onward recycling and treatment based on the electrical waste being collected and your location.
Accepted devices are assessed as electrical waste according to their equipment type and condition. The service does not accept infected, clinical or contaminated items simply because they contain electrical parts.
The importance of recycling medical devices
Non-infected medical and laboratory equipment contains electronics, metals and precision components that can be recovered. Recycling retired devices ensures valuable materials are reclaimed while equipment unsuitable for the service is excluded at the enquiry stage.
