Engineered with healthcare professionals in mind, this premium sharps disposal system combines innovative safety features with practical functionality to protect staff, patients, and visitors from needlestick injuries and biohazard exposure.

Advanced Safety Features That Set the Standard

• Counter-Balanced Lid Technology: The intelligently designed counter-balanced lid mechanism facilitates safe, controlled disposal of sharps while minimizing the risk of accidental contact with contaminated materials. This engineering innovation ensures the lid returns to a closed position automatically, maintaining a secure barrier between users and hazardous waste.
• One-Handed Operation Design: Healthcare professionals work in fast-paced environments where efficiency matters. The lid's ergonomic design enables seamless one-handed operation, allowing medical staff to safely dispose of sharps while maintaining control of other instruments or patient care activities.
• Horizontal Drop Design: Maximize your container capacity with the innovative horizontal drop configuration that allows for optimal space utilization up to the designated fill line. This thoughtful design reduces the frequency of container changes, improving workflow efficiency and reducing operational costs.

Enhanced Visibility and Monitoring

Never worry about overfilled containers again. The transparent construction features easy-to-see fill level indicators that provide instant visual confirmation of remaining capacity. This critical safety feature helps prevent overfilling, which can lead to dangerous spillage or needlestick injuries during container removal and replacement.
