Recycling solutions for Single Use Ureteroscopes

Single use ureteroscopes generate significant medical waste while containing valuable materials like stainless steel, optical fibers, and precision polymers. Without structured take-back programs, these sophisticated medical devices end up in general healthcare waste streams, missing opportunities for material recovery and circular economy benefits while increasing disposal costs for healthcare facilities.

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 Single Use Ureteroscope?

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

Stainless Steel
45%
Scope body, working channels, and structural components
Medical Grade Polymers
30%
Outer sheath, handles, and protective casings
Optical Fibers
12%
High-grade glass fibers for visualization
Electronics
8%
Sensors, connectors, and control components
Other Metals
3%
Springs, fasteners, and precision parts
Other
2%
Adhesives and miscellaneous materials

This composition, especially the Stainless Steel and Optical Fibers, makes single use ureteroscopes ideal candidates for structured take-back programs.
