Catalyst Waste Solutions Ltd services

Many Trusts do not have resources dedicated to improving waste management. As a result, opportunities to reduce costs and improve compliance are being missed. Catalyst can help improve this situation through providing tailored support packages that meet individual Trusts needs and utilise our expertise. The services are flexible in design but are based on working in partnership with Trusts to achieve clearly identified objectives. Shared benefit/saving schemes will be considered. The complete waste management service can include some or all of the Catalyst Services.

The establishment of formal and documented audit processes enables waste producers to demonstrate compliance with regulations. Healthcare waste management is a complex process due to the varied types of waste produced, the potential risks to human health and the environment, and the increasing amounts of legislation involved. Since the implementation of the Hazardous Waste Regulations and the Environmental Permitting Regulations, auditing of your waste and segregation systems is a legal requirement and forms part of the conditions set down by the Environment Agency to ensure healthcare waste is safely disposed of. For many this is an annual requirement. Catalyst operate a wide range of audit services, that focus on the needs of the Trust, rather than the contractor. Our audits examine all waste types and look to ensure legal compliance and cost savings.

Ensuring legal compliance is the foundation stone for any waste management strategy and our experts are on hand to help you navigate your way through these increasingly complex legal requirements. Our experience of working within the NHS enables us to combine an in depth understanding of regulations alongside the practical skills needed to implement effective waste management policies.

As trusted experts in healthcare waste management, we pride ourselves on offering simple and cost effective training programmes that deliver real engagement and measurable benefits. Our flexible programme of classroom, E-learning and on-site training offers tailored support for all areas of the healthcare sector; from acute and community Trusts, to private hospitals, the ambulance service,  dental surgeries and animal health.
