Contaminated equipment that requires special evacuation
According to the guidelines of the Ministry of Environmental Protection, any equipment that comes into contact with hazardous substances or toxic waste which may leave traces and could lead to the bodily injury of a person, impacting nature or damage to property is considered, by definition, to be contaminated equipment and obliges its owner to conduct orderly destruction or purification by any means at the owner’s disposal or at the disposal of companies specializing in the field.
Disposing of contaminated equipment in an uncontrolled manner is a criminal offense under the law!
You can come across hazardous materials that require special reference and removal in industrial products of :the following types
Solvents Adhesives Acids Sprays and paints with a chemical composition
Also materials that are in medical use such as:
Chemical materials Liquid or powdered drugs Disinfectants

Transport, removal and treatment of laboratory and biological waste
Your lab, regardless of its size or whether it is a school lab or a commercial laboratory or an industrial plant, produces a myriad of waste materials.
Laboratory waste is usually divided into three main types:
- Expired materials
- Empty packaging
- Effluent
The treatment of waste of the type and the transport thereof according to the provisions of the law, is exactly the same as the treatment of any hazardous waste – regardless of quantities.
We dispose of laboratory waste and biological waste for organizations such as laboratories and schools, universities, startup companies, commercial laboratories and multiple factories.
In order to be sure that everything conforms to the provisions of the law and that you also protect the environment, it is recommended that laboratories and schools carry out the removal of hazardous waste at least once a year and, with respect to larger laboratories, once a quarter / month, depending on quantities.
The process of removing and treating laboratory waste
The waste is packed in dedicated packaging by the customer. Upon arrival of the waste at the factory, it is weighed and carefully sorted by the company’s chemists. The sorting allows the waste to be routed to different end destinations.
The treatment of laboratory waste is carried out in part – when such is possible at the transit station and when it is not – the waste is transferred to the approved end destination.
The waste is repackaged in standard packaging and delivered to the end destination.
The certificate of destruction is submitted to the customer pursuant to the provisions of the law, together with the invoice.
As part of the service, we treat biological laboratory waste that requires sterilization according to the provisions of the law. The company provides a service for the collection, removal and treatment of infectious biological waste originating from research laboratories and biotechnology plants.
Disposal of chemical or toxic waste
Because these are hazardous and toxic substances, the treatment is carried out with dedicated technologies that are specially adapted to this purpose and in accordance with the Hazardous Substances Law:
Collection of toxic substances
This phase is carried out at the plant itself and includes emptying and collection of computer chips, liquids, sprays, hazardous materials and the like of high toxicity, in adapted containers.
In some cases, the hazardous materials are transported to a transit station located on the premises of the plant, where they are sorted.
Sorting and neutralization are performed by unique technologies developed by Ecology Services.
Treatment of toxic waste
After neutralizing the hazardous material, sorting and transferring the toxic waste to normal packaging, the waste is loaded onto designated pallets and transferred to vehicles that are especially adapted for the disposal of toxic waste.
The vehicle fleet of the Ecology Services Company provides a solution for transporting all types of packaging and toxic materials, such as:
- Barrels
- Containers
- Trolleys
- Trailers
- Bulk materials etc., excluding radioactive materials
The transport of hazardous materials and toxic waste to designated and regulated end sites, such as Ramat Hovav.
Reusable waste is exported by ecology services for use as a raw material for energy production.
