BIO WASTE RESOURCES

In the early 1990's, policies and regulations regarding proper handling of medical waste were virtually non-existent. Because of this, Medical professionals often disposed of such waste in conventional garbage containers. Many related businesses lacked standardized regulations to safely contain or destroy their medical waste. One day, while receiving an injection, Brett Visser asked, "What do you do with the used syringe?" The physician responded that it was simply placed in the trash. Brett was shocked and promptly began researching laws and regulations pertaining to medical waste disposal. Realizing a need for safety, compliance, and education, Brett founded Med Tec, Humboldt County's first medical waste disposal company.
