ICTV
Pharma, Nutraceutical & Supplement Manufacturers

Secure destruction for expired, off-spec, and recalled product — with documentation that protects the brand.

Pharmaceutical, nutraceutical, and supplement manufacturers carry expired inventory, off-spec batches, and recalled product that can't go in a dumpster or hit the resale market. ICTV provides secure destruction with full chain of custody and Certificate of Destruction, plus recovery for packaging and non-hazardous streams, nationwide.

The Problem

What waste looks like without the right partner.

1

Expired and recalled inventory with no secure outlet

Expired SKUs, recalled lots, and discontinued product require destruction that prevents resale or reuse — not a dumpster a hauler empties without record. ICTV destroys product through certified partner facilities under full chain of custody with a Certificate of Destruction.

2

Off-spec batches that can't reach the market

Failed QA, mislabeled, or off-spec batches must be irreversibly destroyed to protect brand integrity and prevent diversion into gray-market resale channels. Documentation is the proof your quality and legal teams need.

3

Branded packaging that exposes the brand if it leaks

Labeled bottles, blister packs, cartons, and branded packaging carry the company's name. Destruction has to render branded material non-recoverable, with photographic proof on request.

4

Documentation gaps that fail audits

Quality, regulatory, and finance teams all need defensible destruction records. Without chain-of-custody documentation and a Certificate of Destruction, write-offs and recalls won't hold up under audit.

Why generic providers fall short

The gap between standard service and what pharmaceutical & nutraceutical operations actually need.

Generic haulers won't document destruction.

A standard pickup gives you an empty dumpster, not proof that branded or recalled product was rendered non-recoverable. Without a Certificate of Destruction, your write-off and recall records are exposed.

Product ends up in resale or gray-market channels.

Off-spec and recalled inventory dumped without controlled destruction can resurface for resale — a direct brand and liability risk. Secure destruction with chain of custody is the only defensible path.

Packaging and non-product waste gets ignored.

Recyclers won't take branded packaging and haulers won't document it, so film, cartons, and rigid plastics default to landfill with no diversion record.

Regulatory Context

The compliance picture.

What these laws mean for pharmaceutical & nutraceutical — in plain English.

FDA Brand & Diversion Controls

Manufacturers of pharmaceuticals, nutraceuticals, and supplements must ensure expired, off-spec, and recalled product is irreversibly destroyed to prevent unauthorized resale, reuse, or diversion.

Non-compliance risk

Improperly disposed product that reaches resale channels creates brand, liability, and regulatory exposure. A Certificate of Destruction provides defensible proof of disposition.

SB 54

Branded packaging, film, and rigid plastics from manufacturing and packaging operations fall under single-use packaging requirements — all single-use packaging recyclable or compostable, 65% of single-use plastic recycled, and 25% plastic source reduction.

Non-compliance risk

Non-compliant packaging cannot be used in California after January 2027. Manufacturers need documented diversion pathways for packaging waste.

AB 1826 / SB 1383

Commercial recycling and organics diversion requirements apply to manufacturing facilities generating qualifying volumes of solid and organic waste, covering production residuals and packaging streams.

Non-compliance risk

Fines up to $500–$10,000 per day for organics non-compliance. Documented diversion to approved pathways with five-year recordkeeping is required.
