Our Commitment to Safe & Responsible Disposal
We are committed to the safe, secure, and environmentally responsible disposal of all X-ray films and silver-bearing materials we receive. Our goal is to ensure that every film is processed using approved methods that protect the environment and follow proper recycling standards.
