The Maltese company has developed an innovative chemical - a super absorbent polymer (SAP) in a biodegradable membrane to be used in biological waste such as blood disposal as a coagulant. Once it is placed in contact with biological matter it will solidify the liquid turning it into a gel to avoid mess during spillage and ensure safety and cleaner environments. The de-watering agent significantly reduces the risk of contamination.
The membrane sachets are produced in different sizes depending on the intended final application.
The company can handle manufacturing 13 tons of packed material a month, equivalent to 45 pallets per month.
The company is seeking international distributors that have contacts mainly with hospitals and veterinary clinics to set up distribution agreements particularly across the UK, Ireland, Switzerland, Finland, Luxembourg, Israel and Liechtenstein
Advantages & innovations
The super absorbent polymer has environmental and health benefits since it reduces risk of contamination and waste mess during spillage.
The innovative product is easy to handle since it is packaged in pre-packed sachets that are small and can come in different sizes and weights.
The packets are easy to use since the outside membrane does not need to be removed, and thus can be applied directly.
The sachets can be customised in various formats, shapes and sizes.
The innovative product can be easily used in other applications that require easier disposal of liquid waste such as in the case of organic waste - to reduce odours that come out from the liquid.
