- Veterinary clinics
- Pharmacies
- Beauty clinics and aesthetic practices

- Laboratories
- Physiotherapy and rehabilitation clinics
Whether you run a single practice or manage multiple locations, we can provide a clinical waste solution tailored to your business.
Clinical Waste Regulations in the UK
UK environmental and health legislation places a legal duty of care on every business that produces clinical waste. From the moment you generate waste until its final disposal, you must ensure it is managed correctly.
This includes:
- Segregating different waste types correctly
- Storing waste in approved containers
- Using licensed waste carriers
- Maintaining accurate compliance documentation
- Following approved treatment and disposal methods
Failure to meet these legal requirements can lead to significant fines, enforcement action and reputational damage.
At Principal Hygiene, we make compliance simple. Our experienced team manages every stage of the process, giving you complete confidence that your clinical waste is handled safely and responsibly.
