Do you care about your patients and the planet?
We created an elegant solution for all types of Needling Styles
Acufast is the industry’s first earth-friendly acupuncture needle system, designed to reduce the environmental impact your practice has on the planet. Acufast Earth Friendly Needles are high quality, Korean-made acupuncture needles. They come bulk-packed in biodegradable packaging, with reduced and recyclable plastic materials, and optional tubes so you never have to throw an unused tube away again! Partner your Acufast needles with the Acuclip and Acubase accessories to make handling bulk needles easy and effortless.
Plus, we believe in the power of trees to heal the planet! We will plant 1 tree for every two boxes of needles you use.
Join the growing collective of global practitioners who are choosing to reduce acu-trash, plant trees, and heal their patients and the planet!
Reduce your clinic’s acu-trash by up to 99%?
Let’s look at an example:
For a practitioner who sees 30 patients/week, uses approximately 20 single tube needles/patient that’s 600 needles/week, or about 2400 needles per month.
Total Waste Generated with Typical Single Tube Needle Brand: 73.12 Litres of Acu-Trash
Now compare that to Acufast Earth Friendly Needles: you only produce – 0.82 Litres of Acu-Trash / month

- Needle and guide tube pouch packs are made from fully recyclable PET1 plastic.
- Smallest needle packaging on the market per 1000 needles to minimize space and energy requirements for shipping.
