In order to achieve this we aim to place the clients' priorities first and provide effective and efficient services minimising cost and inconvenience to achieve these objectives.

We use our approved disposal and recycling route with a major UK organisation who transport, recycle & reprocess waste appropriately and in accordance with our Environmental Policy.
This approach enables us to monitor and control our waste chain effectively. Our waste chain complies with the Hazardous Waste Regulations (2005) and we offer WEEE-compliant disposal services ahead of the Directive. Our recycling partner is both BS9001 & EN14001 accredited to ensure your waste is processed correctly and efficiently. We personally manage all aspects of the decommission and recycling process to ensure an efficient and effective service is maintained at all times.

In England, Wales and Scotland, the registration of waste brokers and dealers is regulated through the Waste Management Licensing Regulations 1994 (as amended) and as such IRS (Medical) Ltd is registered with the Environment Agency as a Waste Broker & Carrier.

Under current legislation, it is the 'producer of the waste' who is responsible for their waste until its final disposal. This is encompassed within the Duty of Care as defined in the Environmental Protection Act (1990). Using contractors who fail to dispose of your equipment correctly could result in heavy penalties, prosecution and possible environmental contamination. It is also an offence to allow movement of waste without using a registered carrier or one who is exempt from registration. We work closely with you throughout the process to ensure all activities are planned and executed correctly.

Our operations can be undertaken during weekends to maximise your clinical service availability whilst reducing the disruption to your organisation. We are familiar with working within medical environments so patient discretion and privacy will be maintained at all times throughout the process.
All operatives are trained, experienced and sympathetic to working in sensitive environments.

In order to help you discharge your Duty of Care responsibly, all our work is risk assessed, methodology stated and fully insured.

IRS (Medical) Ltd professionally decommission and compliantly dispose of CT scanners, linear accelerators, simulators, general diagnostic and orthovoltage equipment, fixed equipment eg rail-mounted systems, chiller/refridgeration equipment, active sources and other equipment.
