Giving Medical Equipment a Second Life: How Outfront Medical Partners with Recyclers to Promote Sustainability in Healthcare
In today’s healthcare landscape, sustainability and cost efficiency are more important than ever. Hospitals, clinics, and recyclers are facing growing challenges — from managing surplus inventory to ensuring that retired medical equipment doesn’t end up as waste.
At Outfront Medical, we’re committed to providing a smarter, more sustainable solution: helping recyclers and healthcare facilities recover value from used medical equipment while supporting a cleaner, circular economy.
Why Recycling Medical Equipment Matters
Every year, thousands of high-quality medical devices are removed from service — not because they’re obsolete or broken, but because facilities upgrade to new systems or consolidate equipment.
Without a reliable partner, much of this equipment is discarded, creating unnecessary waste and lost value. By recycling and refurbishing these devices, we help reduce the environmental footprint of healthcare while allowing essential equipment to be reused where it’s needed most.
Our Partnership with Recyclers
Outfront Medical works closely with medical equipment recyclers, liquidators, and surplus managers across the country. Our goal is simple:
- Recover usable equipment that can be refurbished to OEM standards.
- Ensure compliance and safety through detailed inspection and testing.
- Place refurbished equipment in medical settings where it can continue serving patients.
We specialize in a wide range of devices — from infusion pumps and ventilators, bipap’s and cpap’s, to patient monitors, and defibrillators.
This collaboration not only extends the life of valuable technology but also helps recyclers and facilities unlock financial return on equipment that would otherwise be discarded.
Sustainability Through Smart Reuse
Refurbishing medical devices isn’t just about cost savings — it’s about responsibility. By working together with recyclers and facilities, Outfront Medical is helping reduce the environmental impact of healthcare operations while supporting more sustainable purchasing practices.
Each refurbished device represents one less piece of equipment in a landfill — and one more opportunity to support patient care in a cost-effective way.
Let’s Work Together
If your organization handles surplus or recycled medical equipment, Outfront Medical can help you manage, remarket, and repurpose it responsibly.
