At the heart of our sustainability mission is contributing to society, avoiding harm and bettering our business. Our goal is to foster innovation while respecting our environmental and social responsibilities.
Tristel’s climate goals are independently validated and aligned with the latest climate science, providing a clear pathway towards long-term emissions reduction and net zero.
Understanding environmental impact means looking at the complete picture. The Tristel Trio Wipes System has been assessed across its entire lifecycle, from raw material sourcing through to end-of-life disposal, providing transparency and supporting informed sustainability decisions.
From raw material extraction to component processing, responsible sourcing plays an important role in reducing environmental impact.
Manufacturing processes, resource consumption, emissions and waste all contribute to a product’s environmental footprint. The Tristel Trio Wipes System that is manufactured at our headquarters uses renewable electricity, using renewable electricity, helping to minimise emissions from production.
Transportation can significantly influence lifecycle emissions, making efficient logistics an important consideration. Products are transported by land and sea rather than air wherever possible, reducing distribution-related carbon emissions.
Zero Emission Use: The Tristel Trio Wipes System requires no water and no electricity during use, generating no carbon emissions during the decontamination process.
Consideration of end-of-life outcomes is essential in creating a more circular healthcare economy. Our bottles and paper-based packaging materials are manufactured from 100% recyclable materials. All product cartons manufactured and packed by Tristel are sourced from FSC-certified suppliers.
Tristel has completed its first ISO 14067‑certified Product Carbon Footprint (PCF) for our flagship Trio 50 – The Trio Wipes System which is independently verified.
Sustainability improvements can deliver measurable environmental and operational benefits. The Emergency Department at Wyong Hospital implemented daisygrip to save money, reduce waste and the carbon footprint attributed to healthcare as well as improve staff morale through taking steps to address climate change.
