Trikon Clinical Waste is a Welsh based startup with its object to clear medical waste. Owned by Prad Halai, TCW (Trikon Clinical Waste) has undertaken the task of solving a major problem of medical waste in the United Kingdom. TCW has collaborated with more than 2000 hospitals, clinics and healthcare facilities for this purpose, and would be covering more than 99% of the UK’s postcode to ensure medical waste is managed with responsibility.
TCW offers cost-effective customized medical waste management solutions. They also provide a quote, obligation-free site visits and consultations before taking any action on a particular site. In a short span of 10 months in its operation of medical waste arm, TCW has successfully undertaken eight major projects. Over a period of time, Trikon Clinical Waste has gained enough expertise to manage any project, irrespective of the size, successfully.
TCW provides solutions for both hazardous waste as well as non-hazardous waste. Since the hazardous waste cannot be emptied in a general bin we provide different kind of color-coded sturdy bins so that it can be separated from the general public, thus ensuring safety for them.
Did you know that, as per the World Health Organization, 16 billion syringes were used in 2021 alone of which 90% are used directly through blood or muscle, and most of these are thrown away? The absence of a prescribed method to dispose of this has led to further infections such as HIV and hepatitis – C.
Following the NHS guidelines for medical waste disposal to the last letter, Trikon Clinical Waste uses bins, bags & containers for collection and are disposed with the help of high-tech equipment to ensure there is minimal carbon footprint. TCW predominantly disposes of waste using the autoclaving technique; which involves controlled heat thus doing minimum damage to its surroundings and environment.
The carbon footprint of medical waste is significant and is a major contributor to the overall carbon footprint of the healthcare sector. TCW has made its mission to provide sustainable environment-friendly solutions to dispose of medical waste.
Medical waste presents itself with a business opportunity because as per the Global Market Insights, the waste management is set to double itself in less than a decade. Trikon Clinical Waste has decided to bank on it whilst contributing to the society and environment.
Even the government and authorities have started taking steps towards managing the waste responsibly. England has set an ambitious target of having Zero carbon footprint by 2045. As of now, they have managed to reduce emissions by 62% between 1990 and 2020.
