Vanguard has been awarded the Sustainable Development Award

The Sustainable Development Award is an accolade of high repute which had a number of entrants that we had to compete with. We are very proud to win a prestigious award of this nature, one that is judged by our customers and senior leaders in the NHS  – this type of recognition means a lot to us.

Vanguard enables medical facilities to operate more sustainably, ensuring a better future for users, patients and the planet. Setting global standards for medical remanufacturing Vanguards paves the way for a circular economy within the healthcare sector. The award underscores both our expertise in remanufacturing single-use medical devices and of course the sustainability of our healthcare solutions. With over 50% less CO2 and a reduction of the resource use by over 28% the positive impact of medical remanufacturing on climate change is significant.

We stood out from the crowd with this award not only because of what we do but also because of our reporting. A thank you to all employees involved and of course to our customers who nominated us. We will be even better together next year!
