Cleanaway Philippines Inc. (CPI) Leyte
A new healthcare waste treatment line is planned to be installed in Isabel, Leyte as part of CEMSI’s environmental service expansion in the region. This will have a capacity of 15,000 cu.m per day to handle the disinfection and treatment of all medical related wastes. This facility aims to address the growing healthcare waste problem from Regions VI, VII and VIII.
Two years ago, various medical wastes were indiscriminately disposed in the open archipelagic sea contaminating not just the water but also the valuable aquatic food resource in the region. This new environmental innovation will address the problem of improper hazwaste disposal. Last 2 February 2022, a public scoping activity was held to present the technology with the community stakeholders. It was attended by the representatives from LIDE, Barangay Libertad, the Sanitation Unit, SB Sangguniang Bayan Secretary and MENRO of LGU-Isabel.
Cleanaway Philippines, Inc. (CPI), located in Leyte Industrial Development Estate (LIDE), is a CEMSI affiliate in the Visayas which started its operations in 2013. Similar to the operations in its Cavite and Tarlac plants, the Leyte Plant also operates an integrated waste management system covering transportation, collection, storage, treatment and disposal of hazardous wastes.

CEMSI and Maguyam Elementary School Enviro-art Contest
Cleanway Environmental Management Solutions Inc., together with Maguyam Elementary School launched an environmental-art contest last November 2021. With the current local school needs, online education is still a great challenge for the local community. A mix of module and online classes are held, but not all students can attend the online classes given the economic limitations. Helping students cope with the changing times, Cleanway Environmental Management Solutions, Inc. delivered a simple Christmas Program for the students: Ano ang Pamasko mo para sa Inang Kalikasan?   The program aims to highlight a campaign against the increasing plastic waste due to the pandemic. Our use of face masks, face shields, delivery packaging and take out materials have increased the volume of wastes. With this theme in their artworks, students may gain environment consciousness in drawing the effects of this problem in the environment and show how can they contribute to lessen the use of plastics in their homes. As an output, the project highlighted our shared responsibilities in protecting that environment that will be reflected from our household responsibilities. Selected student winners won brand new smart phones for their online classes. #CEMSIadvocacy
