Pioneering Sustainable Acupuncture Equipment to Reduce Environmental Impact

[Manchester, UK] – Herbprime, a leader in premium acupuncture supplies, is proud to announce the launch of the groundbreaking Eco-Moxa Stainless Steel Acupuncture Needles, the world’s first acupuncture needles featuring non-petrochemical, industrially compostable moxa guide tubes. This innovative product sets a new standard for sustainability in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) and the Acupuncture Field, offering practitioners and patients an environmentally friendly alternative without compromising on quality or performance.

A Major Leap in Sustainable Acupuncture

The Eco-Moxa Stainless Steel Acupuncture Needles are designed with the world’s first moxa-based, plant-derived guide tubes, which are fully compostable in industrial settings. By replacing conventional plastic guide tubes, Herbprime is significantly reducing the environmental waste traditionally associated with acupuncture.

“We are thrilled to introduce these eco-conscious acupuncture needles,” said Amy Tso, Director at Herbprime. “As we continue to evolve our offerings, sustainability remains at the forefront of our mission. Our Eco-Moxa needles are not only designed to deliver high-quality results but also to protect our planet by reducing up to 70% of the carbon footprint.”

Sustainability without Compromise

Herbprime’s Eco-Moxa needles are made from stainless steel, chosen specifically for its minimal environmental impact compared to copper. Copper production is associated with harmful environmental effects like water pollution and acid rain, whereas stainless steel is more sustainable and does not require toxic electroplating processes.

Additional sustainable features include:

• Recycled Packaging: The packaging is made from recycled cardboard, further reducing waste.
• R-PET Pouches: The needles are stored in fully recyclable R-PET pouches, made from recycled water bottles.
• Minimal Ink Usage: Packaging designs are embossed instead of printed, reducing ink consumption and environmental impact.

Precision Engineering Meets Sustainability

Herbprime’s commitment to excellence extends beyond sustainability. The Eco-Moxa needles undergo a four-stage quality control process to ensure sharpness, precision, and patient comfort. Made from high-grade Japanese medical steel, these needles offer a smooth and comfortable insertion experience. The needles are also coated with medical-grade silicone oil, ensuring a superior needling experience for both practitioners and patients.

Available Now in Various Styles and Quantities

The Eco-Moxa Stainless Steel Acupuncture Needles are available in traditional loop and plastic handle styles, with quantities ranging from 100 to 1,000 needles per box.
