The Green Garage
Tabib removes all types of waste defined as hazardous from car garages so the garage need not worry about the removal, transfer and handing of that waste. Tabib provides the garage with an array of services under one roof by removing the waste from the garage and transferring it to a site approved by the Ministry of Environmental Protection.
Oil filters
National collection system for removing and handling oil filters from garages and factories
Oil residues and heavy metals from used oil filters are liable to contaminate the ground. The Ministry of Environmental Protection acts to enforce the collection of used oil filters from car garages and transferring them to proper handling at an approved site.
Following the directives of the Ministry of Environmental Protection prohibiting disposal of used oil filters into regular garbage bins in garages and the proper handling of such waste at an approved site, Tabib provides environmental protection services for garages and gas stations.
The company placed collection bins for used oil filters at thousands of garages countrywide. These bins are collected by specially designated vehicles, which collect them on a regular basis depending on the size of garage and the number of oil filters accumulated. The full collection bins are then replaced by empty ones. The company provides the garage with a certificate indicating the waste was removed to an approved site. In addition, and in accordance with the law, Tabib also submits monthly reports to the Ministry of Environmental Protection on all garages that removed the oil filters. The company removes the filters to an approved site where they undergo a full recycling process. The facility grinds the filters to small flakes that are transferred to a centrifuge, which separates the oil, paper and metal components of the filter. The oil and metal are each recycled while the paper is burnt.
Removal of oils from oil/fuel separators
Tabib pumps and removes oil from oil separators in garages. The oils are pumped with a company pump truck and transferred to a site approved by the Ministry of Environmental Protection.

Removal of batteries and catalytic converters

Supply of oil/fuel separators
In accordance with the law, it is mandatory to separate oil and fuel from the sewer systems by using a standard oil/fuel separator.
As part of Tabib’s overall service to garages, the company also markets standard light oil/fuel separators (mineral oil) approved by the Ministry of Environmental Protection and which comply with the EN 858 Class 1 standards tested by the Israel Laboratory Accreditation Authority and found fit for flowing oily waste in accordance with law.
The company markets and installs the various sizes of separators (as small as 600 liters) according to the size of the garage and the extent of its activity.
