Pioneering a safe and sustainable Clinical Waste Management solution

We're passionate about clinical waste and understand that clinical waste management is a critical aspect of healthcare operations that requires careful handling, segregation, and proper disposal to protect public health and the environment.

40 year's ago, we pioneered the first purpose-built sharps container, and we continue to innovate with the world's first full range of sustainable, single-use waste containers.

40 year's of Innovation

Since we launched the first purpose-designed sharps container in 1979, our purpose has been to minimise the risk of sharps injuries through high-performance, sustainable containers.

We've continually innovated, including developing the Near Patient Sharps Disposal (NPSD) system. A world's first for patient and healthcare safety, compromising of trays, trolleys, and other supporting accessories, designed to specifically be taken to the patient.

Commitment to Sustainability

We are committed to helping you reduce your carbon footprint. Our Sharpsafe containers have 94% reduction in their carbon footprint when compared to containers using virgin plastic. Our range combines high-performance sharps waste management with our eco-conscious manufacturing. By switching our manufacturing over to our low carbon recycled materials, we are helping to support healthcare facilities to achieve their carbon Net Zero targets.
