At Vitacore, we’re proving that sustainability and innovation can - and must - work together to shape a better future.

Over the past few years, our team has taken on challenges that many believed were impossible - from launching Canada’s first PPE recycling program to expanding our capabilities into IV bags, Ambu bags, nitrile gloves, and a wide range of safety gear. Each new material we successfully recycle is another step toward a truly circular economy in Canada.

What inspires us most is the momentum we’re seeing across the country. Hospitals, airports, food manufacturers, and major organizations are no longer asking if they should embrace circular solutions - they’re asking how quickly they can start. That shift in mindset is powerful.

We’re proud of the progress, proud of our partners, and incredibly proud of the team behind this mission.

And while we’ve come a long way, we know there is still a lot more to do. Creating a nationwide network of circular solutions will take continued innovation, collaboration, and a willingness to rethink how we treat waste.

But with the right partners and the right purpose, we’re confident the best is yet to come.

♻️ The truth about “sustainability.”
ESG. Circular economy. Green innovation.

We hear these words everywhere, but too often, it’s just corporate greenwashing. 🌱
At Vitacore, we don’t use buzzwords.
We build real solutions.

🇨🇦 Canada’s first closed-loop recycler for PPE, soft plastics, nitrile gloves, and other hard-to-recycle materials, all processed right here in Canada.
No landfill. No waste-to-energy. No excuses.
Recycling isn’t a marketing trend.
It’s a responsibility.

PPE is essential - but what happens after it's used?

Most PPE waste disappears into the trash stream: unmeasured, unmanaged, and unreported.

At Vitacore, we help ESG leaders close the loop:
♻️Diverting waste from landfills
📉Reducing Scope 3 emissions
📊Delivering verified, traceable ESG data

Recycling is just the beginning.

This is PPE with purpose, and with proof.
