Our approach to recycling 

--------------

KerrTM  supports the principle of Extended Producer Responsibility. We aim to contribute to the efficient use of resources and the retrieval of valuable raw materials through re-use, recycling and other forms of recovery. We therefore actively cooperate with our industry partners, the recycling community and other stakeholders to further improve the collection, treatment and recycling of
Kerr / Ormco products at the end of their lifetime.
