The red dot awarded VACOankle is never thrown away. It is returned to the manufacturer Oped and remanufactured. The packaging makes the patient's life easier:

 

it is functional, light, robust, communicates „don't throw me away“ and on top of this it is post paid.

Due to a smart labeling system the packaging concept is modularly usable for various products and product combinations.

 

This is how important aims like sustainability and recycling economy are achievable!
