Trioworld’s circular solution for plastic aprons is being introduced in Region Stockholm

Trioworld and Region Stockholm have entered into an agreement on a circular solution for personal protective equipment (PPE).

In the agreement, Trioworld’s solution has created a closed loop for plastic aprons that includes the entire supply chain – from collection to recycling and granulation of the recycled plastic waste, which is used in the process of making new aprons.

Region Stockholm is responsible for healthcare, public transport and regional development in the County of Stockholm. The unique solution that Trioworld offers not only reduces the environmental impact and the amount of primary plastic material used in public healthcare. It also adds robustness to the supply chain - with aprons that are recycled and produced in Sweden.

The future of healthcare aprons in Sweden

"We are very proud of the trust placed in us by Region Stockholm," says Johan Lantz, Sales Director National Accounts at Trioworld Industry Division. "This marks a significant milestone for Swedish healthcare, as they are now taking the step towards circulating and recycling aprons, which are second only to plastic gloves in terms of consumption volume at Swedish hospitals. This innovative solution is now available within the Swedish industry, with local production emphasizing sustainability and robustness," continues Johan Lantz.
