Participating Hospitals in Australia and New Zealand PVC Recycling in Hospitals — an initiative of the Vinyl Council of Australia — continues to grow and gain recognition. There are now over 150 public and private hospitals and VETs participating in Australia/New Zealand. One day, recycling will be normal practice. Congratulations to those hospitals who are recycling their PVC medical products, and setting a great example to their colleagues. All start by recycling in one unit, and then grow, integrating PVC recycling into high-volume areas as they adopt good separation habits with minimal contamination in their bins. For them it is now part of good practice. To help facilitate the change from wasting to recycling we provide free videos and newsletters (click here). Each week the quantity recycled grows as more hospitals join in and we send your quality material to manufacturers in Australia/NZ who make it into new CONTACT product and give your PVC a new and long life.
