NeedleAID Green
Product​​ & Service
The NeedleAID Green Recycling Service provides environmentally friendly solutions for managing sharps waste in healthcare, research, and veterinary care.
​
How?
​
Did you know that syringe needle caps are 100% recyclable?
​
More than 16 billion needles are used every year - that's 100 blue whales worth of recyclable needle caps that get thrown away every year!
​
We are committed in supporting sustainable material recycling practices, collecting and rerouting plastic syringe needle caps to local recycling programs.
​
Our Green Subscription Package is customizable for your facility, clinic or lab, and we can accept a wide array of additional single-use plastics, including masks, gowns, wrappers, needle-caps and more!
