Core Competencies
ERDWICH's core competencies include shredding machinery, plant engineering, and comprehensive service. The company provides personalized support and high-quality products made in Bavaria.

Hospital Waste Destruction
The systematic shredding of hospital-specific waste is essential for its destruction. This process addresses the challenges posed by increasing infectious waste due to global population growth, epidemics, and natural disasters. Shredding is crucial for effective disinfection and sterilization, ensuring bacteria are reliably killed.

Shredding Process
ERDWICH shredders, particularly the single-shaft shredder with a perforated sieve, allow precise determination of material size, ensuring thorough destruction and bacterial elimination. The shredding process can be integrated both before and after disinfection and sterilization.

Application Examples
1. Large containers (up to 1.1 cbm) are processed in a closed system before disinfection and sterilization.
2. Containers up to 80 liters or refuse bags are shredded post-treatment, ensuring material is unrecognizable.

Advantages
- High throughput capacity
- Safe bacterial elimination
- Precisely defined piece sizes
- Reduced risk and simplified logistics

STS Sterilization Systems
Infectious waste is transformed into dry, free-flowing granulate, treated like household waste. Reliable sterilization is achieved by homogeneous comminution before thermal treatment. Excess liquids are managed through an integrated system.

ERDWICH's solutions are utilized by various international clients, including TD Medical (Vietnam), Meteka (Austria), Holcim a.s. (Slovakia), Gravity Health (India), and Ropeco (Romania).
