Reusable solutions play an increasingly important role in helping healthcare organisations reduce costs, improve operational resilience, and support NHS Net Zero commitments.

This calculator provides a like-for-like comparison between single-use patient property bags and Versapak reusable alternatives, showing the potential cost savings and carbon reductions achievable over typical usage volumes.

Single-use unit cost
—
Reusable bag (one-off)
—
Seal cost (total)
—
Cost model (payback):
NHS Saving = (Uses × single-use unit cost) − (Bag cost + (Uses × seal cost))

Carbon model:
Single-use = Uses × size-specific kg CO₂e per bag
Versapak = reusable bag CO₂e + (Uses × seal CO₂e)

Reusable small-bag CO₂e is estimated by scaling the measured large reusable bag footprint using surface-area ratio from bag dimensions (Small ≈ 52.4% of Large).
