We are committed to lowering the risk, cost, and effects that medical waste treatment and disposal leave on the environment. Our current technology TE- 5000 is a processing unit of the size of a desktop but transforms the waste, including syringes into disinfected garbage. It lessens the CO2 influence by lessening waste. Our mission is to reduce the transportation of waste to any common location. We are dedicated to presenting greener and cleaner options for processing the disposal of medical wastes. We also look forward to assisting NGOs, first responders, and government agencies to dispose of large quantities of sharps waste to minimize the risk for community members, workers, and others.

Above all, it is an important task as incorrect disposing of medical waste can cause severe damage to the environment and the bio-life. Just like there is a proper way to dispose of every kind of trash, disposing of medical waste should also be done appropriately. Identifying the items of medical waste, following the government regulations regarding the proper disposal of medical waste at home, and accepting the procedure for disposal of contaminated sharps and other types of medical waste are necessary steps in the medical waste disposal process.

  6. Containers for Disposing Sharps Sharps are any object that can pierce the skin like needles, broken glass, syringes, etc., and infect you with any kind of pathogens. The used sharps are infected with biotic substances that can transmit diseases into the environment. Hence, sharps are needed to dispose of in special containers that are leak- proof and puncture-resistant. Approved containers must be made of hard cardboard or plastic and placed near the area where the sharps are used. They need to be replaced timely to avoid overfilling of the container. Once the container is full, they are to be disposed of at designated collection sites or collected by specified pick-up services or through mail- back programs.
