Non-Destructive Film Buyer Promotes New Legal Ways For Medical Companies In Houston To Dispose of X-Ray Film
Online, April 4, 2012 (Newswire.com) - Non-destructive film Buyer Industrial Surplus Inc. has added X-ray Film recycling to their list of scrap metal and asset recovery services. It is illegal to simply throw away X-ray film used for medical purposes; therefore medical clinics around the Houston metropolitan area can discard these materials safely and responsibly to Industrial Surplus.
With new federal privacy laws and state environmental regulations, all medical clinics and hospitals must recycle their used X-ray film. This is beneficial for the environment as less metal will make its way into the local landfills and the medical clinics can recoup a portion of the metal value in the X-ray film. Privacy advocates can also rest easy knowing that the X-ray film is being recycled and not re-used.
Industrial Surplus is a company that specializes in the scrap metal and asset recovery business. Started as a family business by Gino Parker, Industrial Surplus continues those business-to-business relationships on a personal level. As a non-destructive film buyer, the company helps business restore assets and recycles in-demand metals to reduce environmental waste and help their clients increase their alternative income sources.
As an X-ray film recycler, Industrial Surplus prevents X-ray film disposal from causing environmental problems. Because of the sensitive nature of these x-ray films and their need to be disposed in their entirety, Industrial Surplus makes a commitment to follow all the necessary procedures involved when disposing of hazardous waste. This prevents additional paperwork, undue angst whether everything was disposed of properly and keeps the medical facility in line with rules and regulations.
Without proper disposal, X-ray materials can accrue and take up space at the physical location of a business. This can prompt unsafe disposal in local landfills as the trash builds up, creating an eyesore for the company. Discovery of these materials in the landfill can pose legal issues for the offending company. Therefore, addressing these matters in a proactive matter will help the medical facility follow legal statutes and prevent a simple procedure from becoming a legal nightmare.
