We Buy Scrap X-ray Films
HIPAA-Compliant | Nationwide Pickup | Fast Payment
Whether you’re a hospital, chiropractor, imaging center, or dental office, we specialize in purchasing and recycling obsolete or expired X-ray films. Our process ensures full HIPAA compliance, environmentally responsible disposal, and top-dollar payment for your material.
💿 What We Buy
We purchase all types of X-ray and radiographic films, including:
- Medical, dental, chiropractic, and veterinary X-ray films
- MRI, CT scan, and lithographic films
- Film jackets, folders, and envelopes (with or without paper attached)
- Silver-bearing film from hospitals, clinics, imaging centers, and recyclers
- Non Destructive Testing or NDT films containing a high amount of silver
Pricing can range from $0.50 to $5.00 per pound, depending on the type, condition, and silver content of the film.
🧪 How the Recycling Process Works
Your X-ray films are sent to an EPA-approved refiner for recovery and recycling. The process involves:
- Secure Transportation & Tracking – Every shipment is logged, tracked, and processed in accordance with HIPAA standards.
- Silver Recovery – The films are immersed in a non-toxic enzymatic solution that gently separates the silver emulsion layer from the clear PET plastic backing.
- Refining & Filtration – The silver-bearing sludge is filtered, pressed, and refined into pure silver flake, which are then melted into .999 silver bars.
- Plastic Recycling – The remaining clear PET film base is recycled and repurposed for use in new plastic products.
This closed-loop recycling system prevents harmful chemicals from entering landfills while reclaiming valuable silver and plastic materials.
🔒 HIPAA-Compliant Destruction
We ensure complete confidentiality and compliance with all HIPAA and environmental regulations. Once your X-rays are processed, you’ll receive:
- A Certificate of Destruction and Recycling Documentation
- Proof of proper handling and silver recovery
