19 Oct 2022 --- B. Braun Medical (B. Braun) has been awarded a US$72,500 state grant, secured by Pennsylvania Senator Pat Browne, to fund a medical plastics waste recycling pilot project in the Lehigh Valley. The project will investigate the use of advanced technology to recycle non-hazardous plastic waste from B. Braun’s medical device manufacturing plant in Hanover Township and Lehigh Valley Health Network’s Cedar Crest Hospital. “This project provides an opportunity to make a big impact on the growing challenge of reducing plastic waste from hospitals in our healthcare system,” says Senator Browne, chairman of the PA Senate Appropriations Committee.
