Biomedical Waste Shredder

Biomedical Waste Shredder is a major step in medical waste disposal. Medical waste is often infectious and contains sharp items and even body parts. By regulations, biomedical waste shall be separated and collected in waste bins in different colours.

Medical waste includes infectious waste, pathological waste, sharps, pharmaceutical waste, genotoxic waste, chemical waste, metallic waste, pressurised containers, radioactive waste.

After sterilization, all hospital waste is downsized by Biomedical Waste Shredder. It is a process to break down the waste so as to make the waste unrecognizable. A smaller size helps a better incerination and prevents reuse of medical tools.

Category of Medical Waste Shredder

The biomedical shredder adopts two kinds of blades, depending on your requirement of composition of the waste, input size, capacity and final output size. It is adviced to select a single shaft shredder if the medical waste has a high percentage of bed sheets and non-woven materials. Otherwise, a two shaft shredder is better in terms of  high throughput and producing bigger output size and the ability to shred more variable hospital waste.
