1992
Based in St. Jean (Toulouse), France, Tesalys is a French manufacturer of equipment for the treatment of infectious waste on site. Toulouse, a global showcase of European industrial know-how, has brought Tesalys the necessary elements for the international development of its STERIPLUSTM technology. Download the brochure
With the STERIPLUSTM crusher-sterilizer, Tesalys has quickly become a leader in bio-contaminated waste treatment systems on the production site.
Tesalys is now present through a network of distributors in more than 90 countries on five continents.
Three of the founders of Tesalys, Miquel Lozano, Patrick Hengl and Jean-Michel Rodriguez, met for the first time in 1992. Passionate about infection control, waste management and entrepreneurship, it took them a long time to join forces and establish the business.
TESALYS was supported in its development for the 2014-2017 period by the Occitanie Pyrénées-Méditerranée Region and the FEDER (European Regional Development Fund).
Tesalys benefited from the PassExport and Export Contracts of the Occitania region for carrying out international development actions.
TESALYS also benefited from Innovation and Seed Loans as well as Export Prospecting Insurance, BPIFRANCE devices.
This financial support made it possible to intensify R&D and IP efforts, recruit technical and commercial staff and carry out marketing and communication actions, in particular internationally.
