Environmentally Friendly Wristband Cartridge: Sustainable Solutions for Healthcare from Zebra

At Bar Code Data, we understand the importance of sustainability in healthcare and beyond. As businesses and institutions strive to reduce their environmental impact, Zebra Technologies is leading the way with innovative, eco-friendly solutions. One of the latest advancements in sustainable printing technology is the Environmentally Friendly Wristband Cartridge, designed to support both patient safety and sustainability goals.

A Greener Approach to Wristband Printing

Zebra Technologies has embedded sustainability at the core of its operations, from company-wide green initiatives to new product designs that prioritise waste reduction and recyclability. The latest Wristband Cartridge is a testament to this commitment, offering high-quality, reliable wristband printing while ensuring minimal environmental impact.

By utilising recyclable materials and cutting emissions in manufacturing, Zebra’s approach aligns with the increasing demand for greener solutions in the healthcare sector. With this innovation, hospitals and healthcare facilities can efficiently print patient wristbands while making a conscious effort to reduce waste and promote responsible recycling practices.

The Environmentally Friendly ZD510-HC Cartridge

The new Environmentally Friendly Wristband Cartridge is specifically designed for use with Zebra’s HC100 / ZD510-HC Wristband Printers. What sets this cartridge apart is its composition – it is made from PET 1 material, a widely recyclable plastic that can be disposed of through standard curbside collection programmes.


This means healthcare facilities can significantly reduce their contribution to landfill waste while still benefiting from the high durability and print quality required for patient identification. Supporting circular economy practices, the recyclable PET 1 material ensures that used cartridges can be reprocessed into new products, reducing overall environmental impact.

Sustainability Without Compromise

In addition to its environmental benefits, the wristband cartridge remains focused on enhancing clinical workflows and patient safety. The combination of Zebra’s proven printing technology and sustainable design ensures that healthcare providers do not have to choose between efficiency and eco-friendliness.

With sustainability becoming an increasingly crucial factor in procurement decisions, adopting the Environmentally Friendly Wristband Cartridge helps businesses and healthcare institutions take a step forward in their Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) goals while maintaining operational excellence.

Join the Movement Toward a Greener Future

By integrating recyclable wristband cartridges into healthcare workflows, businesses can actively contribute to environmental conservation without compromising performance. At Bar Code Data, we are committed to providing innovative, sustainable solutions that align with industry needs.
