X-Ray Film & Imaging Recycling Solutions

Our process protects confidentiality while achieving maximum material recovery and zero-landfill outcomes.

We handle and recycle x-ray film from hospitals, clinics, dental offices, and industrial testing facilities, as well as lithographic, motion picture, and microfilm materials. Every project is processed entirely in Canada, ensuring local accountability and reduced transport emissions.

Using an enzyme-based separation method, we isolate the silver-bearing emulsion from the PET plastic film base. The recovered silver is refined into high-value concentrate, while the clean plastic is recycled into new feedstock for packaging, textiles, and industrial applications.

Each shipment is accompanied by chain-of-custody records and a Certificate of Destruction, providing verifiable documentation for both environmental and data-protection compliance.

By keeping all processing domestic, Blue Planet ensures complete transparency, confidentiality, and sustainability—making us the trusted partner for secure film recycling and precious-metal recovery.
