Sunflower Medical 20 Litre Clinical Hospital Waste Bin for Amalgam Waste

Ensuring good levels of cleanliness in medical environments is crucial for providing more hygienic environments for both patients and staff. The Sunflower Medical 20 Litre Clinical Hospital Waste Bin for Amalgam Waste combines a sturdy and practical design with a safer method of the disposal of amalgam waste.

Hygienic Operation

The Clinical Hospital Waste Bin provides hands-free operation, which can help to reduce the spread of germs by eliminating the need for hands to come into direct contact with the surface of the bin. By using the foot pedal to open the lid of the bin, waste can be dropped directly into the bin with ease, minimising any risks of contamination.

The bin also features a sealed base, which prevents any leakages. This will be particularly important if any liquids are being disposed of, helping to ensure that the contents of the bin do not seep out onto clean floors and other nearby surfaces.

Disposal Capacity

Waste can be securely disposed of inside the bin with the aid of the bag-retaining cord, which works to keep contents in place. With a twenty-litre capacity, the Waste Bin for Amalgam Waste can also hold a fair amount of waste. Not only will this prevent the need to frequently empty the bin or externally dispose of the waste, but it also means that the capacity is suitable for use in a variety of locations, such as in surgeries, clinics, and hospitals.

The bin also comes with an integrated wall mounting bracket to affix it to a wall for secure use. It can also be used independently away from the wall for locations where attaching it to one room would be impractical. This would enable the bin to be relocated between rooms as required for increased use.

Safer Design

The colour of the Clinical Hospital Waste Bin lid complies with HTM07-01 (Health Technical Memorandum 07-01: Safe Management of Healthcare Waste) requirements to help prompt an organised and safer disposal of clinical waste. It has also been designed and tested to HTM05-03 Part A (Health Technical Memorandum 05-03: Operational Provisions Part A: General Fire Safety). This will provide peace of mind that the contents of the bin are stored within a flame-retardant container for improved levels of safety.

With an easy-clean design and a corrosion-resistant epoxy-coated galvanised body, the bin is simple to take care with a longer life expectancy compared to similar, less robust products. This means that the bin is not only useful for a variety of requirements, but also practical by providing a trustworthy method of waste disposal.
