Stryker's Sustainability Solutions Impact

 

 

At Stryker's Sustainability Solutions (SSS), we reprocess more single-use medical devices than any other provider—always striving for the highest quality and performance standards. In 2023, SSS helped our customers divert more than five million pounds of waste from the landfill through our reprocessing programs, saving 3,250 customers approximately $238 million.

 

Driven by our shared ambition, we help improve healthcare through innovation—from manufacturing to collections and every step beyond. Every device we reprocess is individually inspected to ensure it meets Stryker's quality and performance standards.
