Eco Ninjas exists to transform healthcare sustainability by providing practical, cost-effective alternatives to single-use products. We believe better healthcare doesn't have to cost the Earth.
Our Purpose
Our reusable theatre caps and badge hats represent more than just products — they're a fundamental shift in how hospitals approach sustainability, patient safety, and operational efficiency. Every cap prevents waste, reduces costs, and improves communication in critical healthcare environments.
We partner with NHS trusts across the UK to support the healthcare sector's Net Zero commitments while simultaneously improving patient safety through better staff identification.
This dual benefit — environmental and clinical — is at the heart of everything we do. Better communication in theatres, fewer disposables in incineration, and lasting cost savings for the NHS.
Our Story
Eco Ninjas evolved from a simple observation: hospitals were incinerating thousands of single-use theatre caps daily, creating unnecessary waste and recurring costs. We knew there had to be a better way.
Working closely with NHS theatre staff, infection control teams, and sustainability officers, we developed a reusable theatre cap system that meets the highest clinical standards while dramatically reducing environmental impact. Our innovative badge system solved a critical challenge — making caps reusable without compromising the personalisation that staff needed.
