Get breathing filters back, recover polypropylene, HEPA filter media & polyethylene, and meet compliance across global markets — without operational headaches.
Breathing filters are essential single-use medical devices that protect patients and ventilation equipment from contamination during respiratory support. With millions used annually across healthcare facilities, these compact plastic components represent a significant waste stream that requires specialized handling due to infection control protocols, yet contains valuable recyclable polymers that can be safely recovered through proper sterilization and processing.
With Resourcify, manufacturers can run compliant take-back programs that:
Most filters are compact and lightweight, but material-rich. A typical unit contains:
This composition, especially the polypropylene and HEPA filter media, makes breathing filters ideal candidates for structured take-back programs.
