WASTE MANAGEMENT
Quarantine & Biosecurity Waste Disposal
Med-X offers a dedicated biosecurity and quarantine waste management solution. Compliant with necessary certifications, transportation, storage and treatment requirements, Med-X will ensure your quarantine waste is safely and securely managed in accordance with departmental regulations.
Biosecurity & Quarantine waste refers to imported materials or products which pose a risk to Australia’s biosystems. These goods require segregated treatment before use within our borders, or potentially secure disposal if deemed necessary during quarantine inspections.
Biosecurity & quarantine waste classification may differ between states but typically encompass animal and plant matter including seeds and timber, imported foods and food waste, and extends to contraband products such as cigarettes and weapons.Med-X: The Trusted Biosecurity and Quarantine Waste Specialists
