VinylPlus Healthcare has been invited to participate in Vinyl Week 2026, sharing practical experiences and lessons learned from medical PVC recycling projects in European hospitals.
In the session “Circularity in Medical PVC: What Hospital Recycling Is Teaching Us”, VinylPlus Healthcare Coordinator Ole Grøndahl Hansen will discuss the opportunities and challenges of establishing circular solutions for PVC medical devices.
Drawing on experience from hospital recycling initiatives in Europe, the presentation will explore collection and sorting, cooperation across the healthcare value chain, and the steps needed to move from pilot projects towards larger-scale implementation.
The session will highlight how collaboration between hospitals, medical device manufacturers, waste management operators and recyclers can help keep valuable PVC materials in circulation.
