What would you do wi
th an extra £8m?

Join the clinical waste revolution and Curo could save you £8m over the next five years. 

Developed by the NHS, for the NHS, Curo processes clinical waste on-site through sterilisation and creates inert floc that can be used for recycled products or waste to energy. 

Northumbria Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust has developed Curo with Peacocks and we’ve trialled this innovative system in hospitals and healthcare facilities over the past three years. Our vision is to reduce and reverse the damage that waste is having on our planet and to help the NHS return substantial cost savings that can be reinvested back into patient care.

£8m is the average saving your NHS trust could make by using Curo to process your clinical waste. That’s equivalent to the salaries of almost 300 new nurses!
