Get A Quote Call Now Single and multi-chair practices In addition to our other waste solutions we also offer a full range of specialised dental packages on a ‘by chair’ or ‘by practice’ basis. All of our dental practice solutions are available separately or as bundles. Amalgam capsules, removed fillings and sludge Because amalgam contains up to 50% toxic mercury and mercury compounds, non-compliant disposal of amalgam waste can lead to water, land and air contamination. We provide a range of specialist amalgam waste containers for the disposal of these items. Lead waste The lead foils contained within dental x-ray film packets can be toxic and must be securely disposed of. Our lead foil container provides a safe and compliant solution for the disposal of lead wastes. X-ray chemicals X-ray dental fixer is a hazardous waste because of its high silver content. X-ray dental developer is less hazardous but it cannot be mixed with fixer solution. Our x-ray chemical containers provides a safe and compliant solution for disposing of these liquids. Gypsum waste Gypsum in dental moulds has a high sulphate content. Combining high sulphate content waste with biodegradable waste produces highly toxic and odorous hydrogen sulphide gas. Because of this, gypsum is banned from normal landfill. Infectious gypsum waste must be incinerated. Non-infectious waste can be consigned for incineration or recovery. Safe, reliable and compliant We are fully compliant with all relevant legislation and provide a reliable and professional service. Contact Us Looking for something else?
