Why Ecosteryl is the best choice for medical waste disinfection?

For 20 years, Ecosteryl has been providing medical waste disinfection and sorting machines. The company is a market leader. Properly disinfecting medical waste is a critical concern, becoming even more crucial during health crises. History has proven this to be true. Inadequate treatment can have severe consequences.

Ecosteryl machines run exclusively on electricity, consuming between 20 and 80 kWh. Being fully electric, they emit no air pollutants, providing an environmentally friendly solution for medical waste treatment. That is why various international organizations, including the World Health Organization (WHO), the United Nations, the World Bank, and Ministries of Health and Environment, strongly recommend these technologies.

 

Ecosteryl’s primary mission is to ensure the highest level of medical waste disinfection. With over 20 years of experience, Ecosteryl provides proven and internationally recognized technology.
The disinfection level reaches at least 6 log10 (99.9999%). Moreover, Ecosteryl complies with the French standard NF X30-503, one of the strictest in the world. Therefore, Ecosteryl machines guarantee optimal disinfection.

Continuous processing

A key advantage of Ecosteryl is its continuous treatment process. Waste is continuously fed into the machine (a container of approximately 50 kg is pushed every 10 minutes on average for the Ecosteryl 250), and disinfected waste is discharged simultaneously.
Unlike batch processes, this eliminates waiting time for operators and improves efficiency.
The Ecosteryl 250 can process a minimum of 250 kg per hour, making it a unique solution in the medical waste industry outside of incineration.
Other technologies require an operator to wait for the cycle to complete before emptying and refilling the machine. Ecosteryl is valued for its ease of use and efficiency.

A powerful shredder

Pre-shredding waste is essential for effective disinfection. Ecosteryl machines are equipped with a robust four-axis shredder, reducing waste to a maximum size of 35 mm.
The shredder features an anti-jamming system to prevent blade damage.
A well-shredded final output ensures better sorting efficiency for recycling centers.

Ecosteryl machines are designed and manufactured to last. Their weight and construction reflect their robustness.
Key components, including shredders, electrical cabinets, microwaves, and sensors, are sourced from the best technical suppliers on the market.
Since Ecosteryl machines primarily consist of electronic and mechanical parts, each component can be replaced over time, extending the machine’s lifespan beyond 20 years.
This factor is crucial for cost analysis and ROI calculations.

Ecosteryl machines are easy to install and operate. Installation takes one week, followed by on-site training provided by Ecosteryl experts.
Need to relocate the machine after a few years? No problem! Since no gas or water connections are required, Ecosteryl machines can be easily moved.
Many clients have already done this successfully.

When purchasing, you can additionally obtain a spare parts kit (consumables) valid for 2 years.
Your team is trained to perform routine maintenance. If issues arise, our 24/7 technical support is available via phone, WhatsApp, or email.
Our experts can even remotely connect to your machine (if you allow it) for assistance. In almost 100% of cases, this is sufficient.
We also provide detailed weekly, monthly, and annual maintenance guidelines, which focus mainly on preventive measures.

The only complex maintenance required is replacing the shredder blades, typically after 1,200 tons of processed waste (for the Ecosteryl 250).
Additionally, Ecosteryl maintains a permanent stock of spare parts, ensuring fast delivery to minimize downtime.

Since Ecosteryl machines run solely on electricity, they do not require water, gas, or other expensive resources.
This keeps operating costs low. Furthermore, one operator can manage two machines at once, further reducing labor expenses.

Thanks to dry heat disinfection, treated waste comes out dry and unrecognizable.
With the R-Steryl sorting technology, this waste can be recycled, contributing to a circular economy in medical waste management.
This is a unique advantage in the industry, as Ecosteryl’s process ensures waste is both dry and optimally shredded for recycling.

Safety is a top priority for Ecosteryl.
From design to operation and maintenance, every aspect of the machine is built with operator and workplace safety in mind.
Ecosteryl machines comply with strict international safety standards (CE, etc.) and integrate multiple preventive safety features such as alarms, alerts, and sensors.
