PART A: The amount of waste coming from packaging of single use disposable items in theatre that goes to landfill is horrendous. I would dearly love to see some innovation to reduce this problem. PART B: Could you develop a reusable sterilising wrap, that could withstand, a couple uses maybe, this could help reduce waste. What if it could change colour after so many uses to identify when it expires?
