Medical Records Secure Disposal
Secure X-Ray Destruction & Disposal
Maintaining old X-Ray films beyond their requirement doesn't just take up storage space, it also increases the chance of a data breach. X-Rays contain private and confidential information and should be disposed of in a secure and environmentally responsible way.
The DocShop provides secure collection and destruction within the medical industry for medical centres, hospitals, dentists, veterinary practices and diagnostic imaging facilities.
Our secure process protects patient confidentiality while also supporting environmentally responsible recycling where possible.
Secure disposal, good for the environment
X-Ray Recycling
Traditional X-Ray films contain several recyclable materials including the paper sheets they are held in, the plastic film and elements of silver.
Recycling X-rays:
- Protects confidential patient information.
- Recovers valuable silver.
- Reduces landfill.
- Allows the PET film to be reused in manufacturing.
Secure disposal and destruction of x-rays helps make sure the content does not end up in a breach of privacy. Using a professional and trusted recycling partner means you can rest assured that the x-ray is not becoming another item in landfill.
