Dedicated on-site waste containers are crucial,
not only to ensuring the safety of those who handle waste but also
to the correct segregation of waste types.
To achieve this we provide a range of equipment
including bags, boxes, sharps containers, compactors and wheeled
bins for the secure disposal of all categories of clinical waste
and dry waste.
When waste is to be removed we provide a fast
efficient service for regular, scheduled, collections and call outs.
Our range of purpose-designed dedicated waste vehicles include double-decker
articulated lorries for carrying clinical waste filled wheeled bins,
bulk carriers for dry waste and box vans for smaller quantity collections.
Following a detailed discussion and survey, we
can advise on both the quantity and type of container required and
a collection programme best suited to your needs.
Technological advancements in response to increasing
environmental concerns have brought about major developments in
alternative treatments. Currently among the world's safest is the
Sanitec microwave disinfection system which we provide as a leading
edge solution for treating infectious waste.
Offering huge financial and environmental advantages,
the Sanitec system exceeds all UK and EU legislative requirements.
It shreds and disinfects clinical waste through microwave processors
without generating liquid effluent or hazardous air emissions.
