Our original installation at their flagship campus in Danville, PA has been performing day-in, day-out since 1999. I take this expansion as a vote of confidence for our solutions and support.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Al Neuner, VP of Facility Operation, describes the technology choice, &#8220;After surveying all of the various technologies available for the destruction of medical waste, we were most impressed by the STI system due to its inherent simplicity.&nbsp; That simplicity has led to years of operation with only planned maintenance of the shredder.
