The difference between x-ray films shredding to pure x-ray films stripping (wash).

Pure X-ray film striping (wash) is a different technology of sliver reclamation than the standard shredding process, the wash process is 100% environmental friendly since all of the raw materials are being recovered, the Silver, PET plastic and paper jackets. When shredding x-rays, usually the paper jackets are being shredded as well which makes it pretty much impossible to wash the films for the silver and due to the paper jackets, so it has to be burned to reclaim the silver and the PET and paper jackets is not.
