Keep Me in the Loop: How Designing for Reuse, Demanufacturing, and Remanufacturing of Medical Device Plastics and Electronics Reclaims Value and Supports Supply Chain Resilience
Medical device manufacturers are increasingly aware of the need for more sustainable design and production, but many are unsure where to start. In an industry focused on risk management, manufacturers must find ways to cut emissions and waste without compromising safety or business performance. This discussion will explore the challenges of designing for reuse and remanufacturing, highlighting how others have overcome both real and perceived obstacles to minimize environmental impact while maintaining profitability. Learn how remanufacturing can enhance supply chain resilience by extending product lifecycles, reducing reliance on new materials, and promoting a circular economy, all of which help mitigate disruptions and improve resource management.
