We have high-temperature incineration facilities that enable us to offer an environmentally friendly and approved disposal option for the following types of waste:
Clinical waste
This is any rubbish that can cause disease. It includes discarded sharps, animal waste, laboratory waste, and human tissue waste. Clinical wastes arise from nursing, medical, dental, veterinary, podiatry, pharmaceutical, laboratory, body piercing, tattooing, emergency services, mortuaries, and blood banks, among other practices. It can also come from healthcare or other facilities when patients are undergoing tests or receiving treatment and during research projects.
Cytotoxic waste
This is waste that is contaminated with metabolites or cytotoxic drugs. Cytotoxic waste includes the residual cytotoxic drugs that could remain after a patient is treated and any materials or equipment that might have cytotoxic drugs. It is critical to handle this waste carefully. It needs to be placed in sealed purple bags and discarded into the right cytotoxic waste bins.
