Recycling solutions for Cautery pens

Surgical cautery pens are essential single-use devices in healthcare facilities, containing valuable copper conductors and precision components. With millions used annually across healthcare systems, these devices represent a significant opportunity for material recovery while ensuring proper medical waste compliance and data security protocols are maintained throughout the recycling process.

With Resourcify, manufacturers can run compliant take-back programs that:

Recover high-value materials
Reduce disposal costs and material purchasing costs by up to 35%
Meet regulation obligations with audit-grade reporting

What's Inside a Cautery pens?

Most pens are compact, but material-rich. A typical unit contains:

Copper
45%
High-grade copper wire for electrical conductivity
ABS Plastic
25%
Housing and grip components
Stainless Steel
15%
Precision tips and internal mechanisms
Electronic Components
10%
Circuit boards and connectors
Other
5%
Cables, insulation, and miscellaneous parts

This composition, especially the Copper and Stainless Steel, makes cautery pens ideal candidates for structured take-back programs.
