Sharps Containers

Sharps containers are specially designed, puncture-resistant disposal containers used to safely dispose of items like used needles, syringes, lancets, and other small medical tools that can puncture or injure. They are usually made of sturdy plastic and labeled clearly to prevent accidental needlestick injuries and contain potential infections. Once full, these containers are sealed and disposed of according to medical waste regulations. They help protect healthcare workers, patients, and the environment by ensuring that dangerous sharps are contained securely and disposed of properly.
