Steribite® Surgical Instrument Recycling Program
Sustainable Solutions for Single-Use Surgical Instruments
Steribite® is committed to delivering sterile, single-use surgical instruments while also supporting responsible environmental practices. Our Recycling Program helps hospitals, ambulatory surgery centers, and healthcare systems responsibly manage used Steribite® instruments after clinical use.
Designed and manufactured in Wooster, Ohio, our single-use Kerrison rongeurs are part of a closed-loop approach that prioritizes safety, compliance, and sustainability.
Why Recycling Matters in Healthcare
Healthcare facilities face increasing pressure to:
Reduce regulated medical waste
Meet ESG and sustainability targets
Lower environmental impact
Improve waste stream management
Demonstrate responsible supply chain practices
While single-use instruments eliminate reprocessing burdens and infection risks, responsible end-of-life management remains critical. Steribite’s Recycling Program helps facilities align clinical efficiency with environmental stewardship.
