Diseases, infections, and viruses are very common in places where hygiene in feminine washrooms is kept unchecked. As per UK law, all washrooms, irrespective of their size and premises, are required to be in a perfect hygienic condition, and that is exactly where TCW’s sanitary towel bin comes into play.
The sanitary towel bin provided by TCW ensures zero odour while maintaining 100% hygienic conditions.
To make things easy for you, we provide three kinds of sanitary bins. These include tight lids, chutes, and pedals. Tight lids and a chute ensure the waste is not overflowed and prevent the user from seeing the contents of the bin. A sanitary bin with a pedal ensures no contact with the bin at all, thus preventing any transfer of infection. Items like pads, nappies, tissues, and menstrual products; that are not recyclable would go in black-coloured bins.
The bins provided by us have a wide variety in terms of colours and designs. TCW offers multiple sizes of sanitary towel bins, including mini sanitary bags. The bins provided by us have an antimicrobial coating so that harmful bacteria’s growth is checked. A sanitary pad bin is specially meant for collecting menstrual and incontinence pads, while waste such as nappies, wipes, kitchen rolls, tissues, etc. can be collected in the black bins.
It essentially depends on how you use sanitary towels. If we want sanitary towels to last longer, then we have to take extra care of our towels. On average, towels would last anywhere between 2 and 4 years. Washing the pads in cold water and using a mild detergent. Avoid using bleach or fabric softeners, as these can damage the fabric and reduce the absorbency of the pads. It is also recommended to air dry the pads rather than using a tumble dryer.
No, sanitary pads would not go in the recycle bins since they contain germs and bacteria that can be infectious to the general public and the environment.
Burning sanitary towels is certainly not a recommended disposal method. This is because toxins such as dioxins and furans are released in the air upon burning sanitary waste, which can have adverse effects on one’s health. This makes sanitary towel bins indeed the safest disposal option.
Yes. Sanitary waste is indeed infectious. Whilst contracting a disease from sanitary waste is unusual, improper sanitary waste disposal is a risk factor for exposing people to bloodborne pathogens.
A business is obligated under legislation to handle sanitary waste to the point of disposal under the ‘Duty of Care” Act. Therefore, it is not feasible to make employees accountable for their own waste disposal. All sanitary waste must be handled by a licenced carrier, such as TCW.

I have recently started using their service for Imaan Ltd. I found them professional, efficient and very promptly the accounts were set up. We have taken their service for sanitary waste and sharps waste for our 12 sites across the UK. So far we are very pleased with their service provided.
I've heard a lot about Trikon, and I'd like to say that I've had a great experience with them. The key thing is to communicate and then you will be surprised at how helpful Trikon can be. We had a couple of minor issues with the start of the contract but nothing that Trikon and the team didn't sort out quickly. They have been more than flexible during the last 3 months of C-19 so no complaints there. To be honest their service so far has been excellent and far far better than Biffa ever was. Give them a chance, communicate and you will be very happy. Good value service and very helpful.
Excellent service for all our branches. From our personal experience, Trikon has always delivered in a timely manner and excellent price. Way better than having Veolia, Biffa and Citron Hygiene.
