A customer of ours from overseas has had great success with helping multiple clients with medical waste disposal. What started off as a medical waste drop off site has expanded to be disposal and incineration for not just medical waste, but also drug and prohibited food disposal and more. This medical waste disposal plant uses two incinerators from Firelake Manufacturing, the P25 and the A850. The client commented, “The P25 has had a lot of intensive use during these COVID-19 times… it is still working well, a quality and tough incinerator… same as our A850.”

Firelake Incinerators are Reliable & Safe

This medical waste drop-off site has found that sometimes clients put inappropriate items, such as highly flammable substances, aerosol spray cans, or sealed cans, into their waste stream and that makes it’s way to the incinerators. However, this medical waste disposal facility has not had any safety issues. The client explained, “Fortunately, the Firelake incinerators themselves are strong and resistant, and have survived all the explosions and undesirable violent burns.”
