Arch Enterprises Expands X-Ray Film Refining Services

Arch Enterprises is expanding its x-ray recycling services to include on-site purging of x-rays and x-ray refining in eight states, including Alabama, Florida, Illinois, Iowa, Kansas, Missouri, Oklahoma and Tennessee. The company also is offering x-ray recycling services to organizations nationwide through a network of logistic providers.

"Our on-site x-ray film recycling services are unique because we have made the process as convenient for customers as possible," said Julie DiNatale, national sales manager for Arch Enterprises. "There is virtually no work on their end due to the fact that we take care of everything from labor and sorting to providing all the materials necessary for film collection such as Gaylord boxes, skids and drums. Also, because about one-fifth of the world’s silver is used in x-ray film, recycling these items is optimal for the environment."

At no extra charge, Arch Enterprises’ staff provides complete sorting services and removal of x-ray films. Due to the sensitive information contained in medical x-ray film, Arch Enterprises has been performing HIPPA compliant recycling services for more than 13 years. Certificates of Destruction are available confirming that the proper process was taken to destroy this sensitive information. The company also offers documentation of general liability and environmental insurance policies.

"We currently work with eight of the top 100 hospital groups in the country. Our experienced team takes every precaution necessary to ensure that the x-ray materials are disposed of according to government regulations and in an environmentally friendly manor. As a precious metal refiner, we can recover the highest amount of silver possible for the greatest return for our customers. In addition, if the hospital or organization is not in one of the states we travel to, Arch Enterprises will accept x-rays from anywhere in the nation," said Julie DiNatale.
