Case Studies

Reducing Medical Waste in NHS Hospitals

Reducing Medical Waste in NHS Hospitals

Challenge

NHS hospitals produce approximately 156,000 tonnes of clinical waste annually, including contaminated plastics that require safe and efficient disposal.

Solution

We implemented the ZLX Shred Packer®, which shreds and compacts clinical waste into stackable bricks while separating liquid from solid materials. This technology enabled NHS facilities to reduce waste volume by 10:1 and safely process clinical plastics.

Outcome

  • 50% Reduction in medical waste collection frequency.
  • Improved compliance with UK landfill regulations.
  • Safer handling and processing of hazardous medical waste.

Managing Packaging Waste for Fast-Food Chains

Managing Packaging Waste for Fast-Food Chains

Challenge

Fast-food drive-throughs generate large amounts of soiled packaging waste, which increases waste collection costs and landfill contributions.

Solution

We introduced the ZLX Shred Packer® to leading fast-food outlets, including McDonald’s, KFC, and Burger King. The machine compacts packaging waste and reduces bin overflow while maintaining hygiene standards.

Outcome

  • 40% Cost Savings on waste collection and storage.
  • Reduced landfill contributions through efficient waste management.
  • Improved operational cleanliness and regulatory compliance.

Waste Optimisation in Retail & Commercial Complexes

Waste Optimisation in Retail & Commercial Complexes

Challenge

Large retail and office complexes face rising waste management costs and increasing pressure to meet sustainability goals.

Solution

By deploying the ZLX Shred Packer®, we enabled facilities to manage various waste streams, reduce storage requirements, and optimise the collection process.

Outcome

  • 60% Reduction in storage space needed for waste.
  • Decreased carbon footprint by reducing collection journeys.
  • Enhanced compliance with the Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) initiative.

Hydrogen Fuel Adoption in Logistics

Hydrogen Fuel Adoption in Logistics

Challenge

Logistics companies face increasing pressure to reduce CO₂ emissions and transition away from diesel-powered fleets.

Solution

We partnered with logistics firms to convert diesel vehicles to hydrogen fuel cells, enabling a cleaner and more efficient transport model.

Outcome

  • 35% Reduction in greenhouse gas emissions.
  • Improved fleet efficiency with longer operational cycles.
  • Compliance with emerging sustainability mandates in the transportation sector.

Enhancing Waste Processing for Recycling Facilities

Enhancing Waste Processing for Recycling Facilities

Challenge

Recycling facilities struggle with processing mixed waste efficiently while maximising material recovery.

Solution

The ZLX Shred Packer® enables facilities to shred, separate, and compact mixed materials, improving sorting efficiency and reducing contamination.

Outcome

  • 25% Increase in recoverable material extraction.
  • Improved processing speed and reduced contamination levels.
  • Lower operational costs through waste volume reduction.
