About us

We transform Infectious Waste into Municipal Solid Waste

Steriale is a healthtech company that develops advanced solutions for hospitals for on-site treatment and management of infectious biological waste.

Founded in 2016 in Spain, our mission is to transform the way healthcare facilities manage their waste by offering safer, more efficient and sustainable solutions that benefit both our customers and the environment.

A hospital generates 4 kg of BIW per installed bed every day, and now more than ever, sustainable solutions are needed to immediately dispose of this potentially hazardous waste on-site.

Unfortunately, current solutions force hospitals and their managers to store BIW containers and plastic bags within their premises, until specialized trucks picks up and transport BIW’s to large plants, usually far away from major cities, for treatment and disposal.

Considering that traditional waste management services have safety and environmental risks, and generate a huge carbon footprint, we found it was necessary to design a solution that completely changes the current IWM paradigm, thus offering increased safety for staff involved, as well as eliminating high fossil fuel consumption of its current logistics solution, exponentially reducing greenhouse gases that pollute our environment.
