Why recycle your film?
Confidential destruction
Recycle your film with confidence!
Spring Air Silver is bonded and insured and able to handle your secure documents. We can provide certificates of destruction and set up specific confidentiality agreements. We provide secure storage and transportation for added delivery security and confidentiality.
Our MDS-25GT class shredding trucks are the most popular mobile destruction system in the industry.
Processing approximately 3,000 – 4,000 lbs/hr, this model is the industry’s Gold Standard.
The heart of the MDS-25GT is Shred-Tech’s custom-designed and engineered ST-25H hydraulic shredder. Material is destroyed and compressed to the storage compartment via auger discharge.
Keep it out of the landfill
Photographic and medical films are made of non-biodegradable plastics like PET or cellulose acetate. Recycling prevents these plastics from ending up in landfills. Silver recovery from film also reduces heavy metal pollution by keeping toxic silver ions—harmful even at low concentrations—out of soil and waterways, preventing leaching, fly ash emissions, and bioaccumulation.

Your film contains valuable silver that we purchase at competitive rates.
By recycling your silver film, you help protect the environment while benefiting financially.
