Dental waste
management
The services of METASYS logistics & collection GmbH meet the specific needs of dental practices. Unlike general industrial waste management companies, METASYS logistics & collection GmbH handles all types of dental waste and therefore provides an uncomplicated way for dental practices to dispose of waste material.
It is required by law that dental practices use a heavy metal separator to separate amalgam from waste water. This waste material is collected in single-use collection containers. These containers are collected and stored in one of our 24 worldwide collection points and shipped to Austria in specific intervals by forwarding companies authorized to transport hazardous goods. Small quantities may also be shipped by the national postal office under strict observation of packaging directives. The amalgam waste is treated and recycled by METASYS recycling & processing GmbH. The remaining waste is then turned over to authorized recycling and disposal companies.
Aside from transport logistics, METASYS logistics & collection GmbH also supports dentists in the implementation of waste regulations and offers practice refurbishment measures, such as the removal of amalgam deposits in plumbing systems.
