Established in 1997, AMDR (Association of Medical Device Reprocessors Association) is a global trade organisation that consists of members of the commercial single-use device remanufacturing industry. AMDR brings together the players of the medical remanufacturing sector and gives them a platform to work together to meet the challenges of tomorrow's healthcare sector.
The goal of AMDR is to ensure the high quality level of medical remanufacturing processes. This is the only way to reduce resource consumption as well as CO2 emissions and hospital waste and maintain the highest level of patient care for future generations even when budgets become ever tighter.
AMDR works in close collaboration with medical facilities and partners from the healthcare sector to make remanufacturing even more efficient and sustainable.
AMDR is committed to the regulation and professionalisation of medical remanufacturing worldwide by formulating quality requirements for medical remanufacturing processes and promoting the development and use of new technologies to be able to guarantee the highest quality products.
All members of AMDR understand the importance of social responsibility. It is the basis upon which they determine shared positions with regards to political discourse and society.
Vanguard has been a member of AMDR since 2011.
