SharpSafety 18 Gallon Sharps Container with Gasket Lid

The Cardinal Health SharpSafety 18 Gallon Sharps Container with Gasket Lid is a durable container used to conceal items such as syringes, needles, IV lines, scalpels and other items that have come in direct contact with blood or other human fluids. Most sharp containers have specialized lids, like the McKesson Sharps Container with Horizontal Lid designed to accommodate syringes with needles attached or other elongated instruments.

For disposing of irregular items such as rags and gloves, the SharpSafety Red 26 x 12.75 x 18.25 with Hinged Lid (8998), PGII Rated with Hinged Lid (8998PG2), or Sliding Lid (8998S) comes in two options for entry; depending on your daily typical use. The SharpSafety container works well for janitorial use. The gasket lid keeps odors and fumes from exiting the sharps container and out into the atmosphere where your patients or staff can inhale the unpleasant or hazardous odors. Keeping the sharps container secured through the gasket lid is one part of it. A final locking stage keeps contents safe inside and prevents tampering while the single-piece design minimizes accidental cracks and broken sections.

The red base makes it a clearly visible container indicating the contents inside are harmful. The large labels reduce confusion to warn staff to handle the sharps container with care - being careful of spilling or coming in contact with biohazard material inside. The free-standing base is large enough to be placed on the floor without being mounted on a wall - if you are interested in a wall-mounted sharps container, you may be interested in a wall enclosure cabinet.
