Ecobraz: Complete Reverse Logistics for the Medical Sector

Introduction to Reverse Logistics in the Medical Sector

Reverse logistics in the medical sector plays a crucial role in complying with the environmental and health standards laid down in Brazilian legislation, such as Law 12.305/2010, which establishes the National Solid Waste Policy (PNRS). The correct management and disposal of waste from technological equipment and materials used in the health area is essential for mitigating environmental and human risks.

Regulatory and Normative Aspects of Reverse Logistics

According to the National Solid Waste Management Information System (SINIR), available at sinir.gov.br, reverse logistics is an instrument of the PNRS that obliges the productive sectors to take responsibility for the life cycle of their products, guaranteeing collection and proper disposal after consumption.

Under the law, the medical sector must adopt integrated practices that ensure the recovery, reuse, recycling, treatment and environmentally appropriate final disposal of the waste generated. Anvisa Resolution RDC No. 222/2018 also guides actions to control healthcare waste.
