Stryker's Sustainability Solutions

Reprocessing is what we do.

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. We’ve helped over 3,000 customers save approximately $1 billion through reprocessing programs and divert over 26 million pounds of waste from landfills.

 

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.
