Get balloon catheters back, recover Medical-grade PVC, Stainless Steel & Polyurethane, and meet compliance across global markets — without operational headaches.
Balloon catheters are critical single-use medical devices in cardiology procedures, but their complex material composition and regulatory requirements make sustainable disposal challenging. Most end up in medical waste streams despite containing recoverable materials like medical-grade polymers and stainless steel components that could be processed for secondary applications.
With Resourcify, manufacturers can run compliant take-back programs that:
Most catheters are compact, but material-rich. A typical unit contains:
This composition, especially the Medical-grade PVC and Stainless Steel, makes balloon catheters ideal candidates for structured take-back programs.
Recycling sounds simple — doing it consistently and compliantly across regions is complex. Resourcify sets up and runs scalable take-back programs worldwide, connecting companies, processors, dismantlers, logistics and recyclers in one platform.
Gather used catheters from healthcare facilities and sort by material composition and contamination level.
Apply gamma radiation or autoclave treatment to eliminate all biological contaminants per medical waste protocols.
Mechanically separate stainless steel components from polymer materials using magnetic and density separation.
Clean and granulate PVC and polyurethane components for use in non-medical applications.
Process stainless steel components into reusable metal stock for industrial applications.
