Many people don't realize that Industrial Surplus will purchase old, unneeded dental x-ray film for the purpose of silver recovery from x-ray film. They are part of a group of so-called "recovery companies" that offer compensation for people's old x-rays. Their services are an excellent way for people to rid themselves of unwanted x-rays that are simply collecting dust and taking up space. The company is in a position to purchase x-rays for the purpose of recycling in Egypt and all over the world.
X-ray film recycling is a process employed by x-ray recycling centers which allows for the extraction of silver from the film. The process works by means of a chemical bath which the films rest in for a length of time. The idea is to break the other chemicals in the film away, allowing for the valuable silver to be extracted and recycled. As a silver recycler, this company can pass some of the value extracted from that silver on to their clients by offering monetary compensation for the x-rays.
Generally, a person should keep an x-ray for a period of 7 years to ensure that the film is no longer a necessary item needed when referencing their medical history. Although individuals may be interested in recycling their piles of x-rays, the more common clients tend to be from larger scale situations. Often, doctors offices and other medical facilities will dispose of different types of film due to a lack of space.
The most important aspect in the whole recycling process is the assurance of respect for privacy. Medical records are a highly private piece of information, and it is of the utmost important that a guarantee of destruction is offered by the silver recycler. With this company, a client never has to worry about their personal information being used inappropriately.
Some of the types of film that the company may accept for the purposes of recycling and scrapping include medical x-rays, dental x-rays, MRIs, NDT film, and lithographic style films, as well as most types of radiology based x-ray films.
Industrial Surplus started out as a simple family-based company that specialized in scrapping and recycling. Those same family values are still at the basis of all the deals that are made today. Clients can expect prompt and courteous service. Offers are made on site, and are based on current market prices. X-ray recycling in Egypt has never been easier.
