Recycled Sharps
Containers
Safer Today, Greener Tomorrow:
Sustainable Sharps Disposal.
Our Sharpsafe® brand is here to help protect you!
At Sharpsafe®, we believe protecting people and the planet should go hand in hand. Worldwide needlestick injuries are among the most common occupational hazards for healthcare workers. The World Health Organisation (WHO) states that 2 million occupational exposures to shares injuries annually, and at least 20 different pathogens are transmitted by a needlestick injury.
Our recycled sharps containers are designed to deliver the same trusted safety and performance, now with a significantly reduced environmental impact.
Each container is fully certified to ISO 23907-1:2019, UN3291, and proudly carries the BSI Kitemark, ensuring it meets the highest standards for sharps containment.
Whether used in hospitals, clinics, or community care, our recycled range offers a responsible choice for modern healthcare—combining safety, sustainability, and smart design in every container.
Manufactured using up to
100% recycled plastic
these containers help healthcare providers meet
their Net Zero targets and sustainability goals without
compromising on compliance or quality.
Our containers have a
94% reduction in the Carbon footprint
of our recycled material when compared to using virgin plastic containers.
