Recycling solutions for Mapping catheters

Mapping catheters contain valuable precious metals like platinum and gold electrodes, plus specialized polymers and stainless steel components. With thousands used annually in cardiac procedures, these high-value medical devices represent a significant recovery opportunity that most healthcare facilities currently send to medical waste incineration, missing both material value and sustainability goals.

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 Mapping catheter?

Most catheters are lightweight, but material-rich. A typical unit contains:

Medical grade polymers
45%
Catheter body and insulation
Platinum electrodes
25%
Mapping and ablation electrodes
Stainless steel
15%
Structural components and wires
Gold contacts
8%
Electrical connections
Copper wiring
5%
Internal conductors
Other
2%
Adhesives and other components

This composition, especially the Platinum electrodes and Gold contacts, makes mapping catheters ideal candidates for structured take-back programs.
