Hagai brings a wealth of international medical device and dental industry experience to his new role, in which he will be tasked with spearheading the global adoption of the Envomed 80 on-site medical waste treatment solution.
Earlier in his career, Hagai headed up strategic development at Medigma Biomedical as part of his role as Executive Director. He made further inroads into the medical sector during his later roles as CEO at Implant B and Global Sales and Marketing Director at Shenpaz Dental.

I am delighted to join Envomed at a time when the solution they provide – the Envomed 80 – could not be more vital to solving the global medical waste treatment problem. With the additional strain placed on healthcare facilities around the world by the COVID-19 pandemic, it is essential that we are able to demonstrate the effectiveness of the Envomed 80 in reducing costs, and removing the damage done to the environment and public health by ineffective waste treatment methods. I’m excited to lead Envomed in doing just that.
