The Becton Dickinson 2-Gallon Red Sharps Container with Counterbalanced Door is used in hospital settings, medical facilities, and clinics to dispose of items that can cause harm to those around or have been used to make incisions or have entered the skin and have come in contact with blood. Disposing of these types of sharps items properly will greatly reduce the risk of accidents from pokes and sticks due to inattentiveness. Removing this potential risk is better for everyone involved - it keeps your staff and patients safe.
The BD Medical 11.5 x 13.5 x 6 Inch Red Sharps Bin (305435) has a volume capacity of 2 gallons. This convenient size is used in facilities with daily procedures such as administering shots, or IV lines such as those administered in plasma and blood donation facilities. The bins can intake needles at a high rate, especially if using a needle clipper such as the BD Needle Clipper to remove needles from syringes.
The sharps container is designed with a low profile frame which can fit on many desks, tables, and even mounted on walls to keep the hazardous container away from the floor where children can get into them. Compared to other sharps containers, you may find that the 2-gallon size is not large enough to fit your facilities needs - luckily we have a huge range of sharps containers and bins to provide you with just the right size of container.
How do you keep minimal contact with a sharps bin when disposing of items such as needles and syringes? Through the counterbalanced lid, of course. With this unique door, you can place your sharps item on the lid, close the lid, and see through its semi-transparent frame the sharps item being dropped into the container. By reducing contact with the bin, you reduce the risk of coming in contact with blood, medication, or other fluids that can be harmful or hazardous to people. The bin also comes with an indicated hazard label to identify the bin appropriately from the other bins around the facility - this will alert people to be wary when handling or around this container.
For final security and safety, the lid is equipped with a locking lid. This comes into play when the bin is needing to be replaced - no one will be able to tamper with the bin once the final closure is used.
