The global economy is now only 7.2% circular, due to an increase in material extraction and use. The share of the circular economy has decreased from 9.1% in 2018 to 8.6% in 2020 to now 7.2% in 2023. This large difference between theory and practice means that more than 90% of materials are either lost or cannot be reused. (Source: The Circularity Gap Report 2023)
The healthcare industry is one of the most resource-intensive sectors in the world and there are numerous opportunities to reduce our environmental footprint. The circular economy in particular has an enormous impact here and can help minimize the ecological footprint in Germany.
The reprocessing and reuse of medical equipment, instruments and aids can extend the service life of the products many times over. Sustainable development and operation already during the development of such products is of great importance here and can help to drastically reduce waste production.
ORTHOSCOOT focuses on the rental and subsequent reprocessing of orthopedic scooters from the very beginning. Together with local medical supply stores and service providers, we map the circular economy, solved by supply chains, from and for Germany.

It is not easy to really "immobilize" an acutely injured foot and at the same time remain mobile. Everyday things become a challenge. The constant walking with crutches requires strength and skill. Incorrect positioning or incorrect weight bearing can often lead to further visits to the doctor, post-operative care or prolonged incapacity to work.
