Do eco-friendly materials meet medical compliance standards?
Yes, many eco-friendly materials can meet medical compliance standards, but not all. Biopolymers, recycled materials, and sustainably-sourced alternatives must still pass rigorous testing for biocompatibility, sterilization resistance, and durability. Materials that meet both environmental and medical standards include certain bioplastics, recycled PET, and plant-based composites certified under ISO 10993, RoHS, and REACH regulations.
