Description
The 5L red medical waste container is a spacious, professional container for hazardous medical waste , designed for the safe collection of solid and sharps waste such as needles , intravenous cannulas , syringes , blades , as well as disposable gloves and other disposable materials. Its larger capacity makes it ideal for environments with a higher waste flow, such as medical practices , beauty salons , tattoo and piercing studios , and pedicure and nail salons .
The container enables the safe storage, transport, and disposal of medical waste and helps prevent needlestick injuries for staff and clients. Using a dedicated needle and waste container is essential for meeting hygienic, sanitary, and mechanical safety standards , especially in professional treatment rooms where sharps are used.
The waste container is made of blow-molded HDPE (high-density polyethylene), which ensures high resistance to mechanical deformation . The lid is made of polypropylene (PP) and features a practical rosette opening and two special openings for safely separating items such as needles from syringes and blades from handles . This makes disposal controlled, fast, and above all, safe.
The dual-function lid allows for both temporary and permanent closure . This allows the container to be securely closed temporarily and permanently closed when full and ready for disposal. The clear red warning color ensures immediate identification as a hazardous waste container.
In addition, the container is UV-resistant and resistant to formalin and ethyl alcohol . It is latex- and phthalate-free , disposable , and non-sterile , in accordance with medical waste collection regulations. The integrated BML label with an international warning symbol is molded during the production process and includes a field for easily recording waste information, even with a pen.
