The
second stage takes place at the primary treatment plant, turning
this sterile flock into a material which is six times more dense
than clinical waste. It is now ready for transporatation to the
plastic manuafacturer. |
|||
The
third stage takes place at the plastic manufacturing plant taking
the densified flock and using it in the manufacture of a range of
timber and concrete replacement products. |
 |

This unique collaboration of technologies has taken four years of research to bring it to the market. It means that for the first time the waste producer has a real choice in how his clinical waste is dealt with. The traditional disposal routes of incineration or alternative technology followed by landfill or the sustainable option. - The Medical Waste Solutions Option suitable for 95% of the clinical waste stream. |
