Sustainability in Medical Devices – Implications for Manufacturers and Regulators
In June 2025, confinis published a white paper on sustainability in the medical device industry, highlighting the urgent need to reduce carbon emissions while maintaining patient safety and regulatory compliance.
The healthcare industry contributes to 5% of global carbon emissions, with single-use medical devices accounting for approximately 80% of this footprint. Despite this, sustainability adoption in MedTech has been slow due to regulatory constraints prioritizing safety over environmental considerations.
This white paper explores how medical device companies can integrate sustainability across the product lifecycle, from design and development to manufacturing, packaging, and disposal, while anticipating evolving regulations and international standards. It provides practical insights and compliance-oriented strategies for sustainability leaders, product developers, and regulatory professionals.
