Supporting healthcare professionals

Legislation requires Potentially Infectious Medical Waste (PIMW) to be disposed of in accordance with strict rules.

Operating all throughout France, our subsidiary Séché Healthcare works alongside clinics, hospitals, care homes, as well as laboratories, doctors, dentists, nurses, vets, and healthcare professionals to process and dispose of waste safely to avoid any risk of contamination.

How we process PIMW

Collection of PIMW

We provide clients with a wide range of puncture-proof, hermetic containers, maintaining traceability through bar codes that are scanned several times during the collection process.

Secure transport

Our vehicles are split into two compartments - one for uncontaminated packaging and the other a hermetic space for PIMW, which is washed and disinfected after every collection is unloaded. All our collection drivers have been trained in how to safely collect PIMW.

Decontamination

Pre-treatment (disinfection, microwave treatment, etc.) inactivates microorganisms and makes medical waste harmless. The waste is then ground to minimize the volume before it is sent to be disposed of as non-hazardous waste.

Incineration

Your waste is disposed of by incineration. The energy generated through the process is recovered to power urban or industrial heating networks or produce electricity.
