Inspired by our purpose to revolutionise care for people and planet, our sustainability roadmap to 2030, WeCare, guides us and lends structure to our sustainability efforts. It is a driver for growth, innovation, and productivity and is an essential part of our employee value proposition.
Reduce Surgical Waste
There are other ways
In 2021 Dutch artist Maria Koijck had breast reconstruction surgery after a mastectomy. Stunned by the amount of waste generated by her procedure, including the postoperative care, she made an art installation and film asking the healthcare industry one simple question – Is there another way?
As our reply, we asked Maria if she would be willing to recreate her artwork, this time as if her DIEP flap surgery had been performed with a Mölnlycke ProcedurePak® tray. The result speaks for itself.
As part of our commitment to use materials efficiently, Mölnlycke are proud to hold certificates from the International Sustainability and Carbon Certification system (ISCC).
Our life cycle assessment shows that using ISCC certified material can help reduce our CO2e emissions.
