X-Ray Recycling
Why Recycle X-Ray Film?
Outdated X-ray films should never be discarded in landfills due to their composition and privacy concerns. They contain Polyethylene Terephthalate (PET) plastic and are coated with silver, a valuable but potentially hazardous material. Additionally, X-ray films are considered protected health records, making their improper disposal a violation of privacy laws like HIPAA.
Secure Shredding & Recycling offers a safe, environmentally responsible solution for recycling X-ray films. Our NAID AAA-certified services ensure compliance with strict industry regulations, safeguarding sensitive information while promoting sustainability.
