Pocket Sharps Bin
Product Details
Our Pocket Sharps Bins are an essential tool for the safe disposal of clinical sharps, designed with the utmost care to minimise the risk of injuries.
Designed to fit seamlessly into a pocket or bag, a Pocket Sharps Bin is ideal for use by ambulance services, community nurses, and individuals on the go, such as during personal travel or by police officers.
Constructed with a strong, rigid body, the Pocket Sharps Bin is made from robust, high-quality recycled material, ensuring that sharps cannot penetrate the container walls.
This innovative design is part of Sharpsafe's 5th Generation containers, launched in 2022, which were the world's first full range of sustainable single-use sharps containers. By using ultra-low carbon footprint recycled materials, we demonstrate our commitment to championing environmental change.
Available in 200ml, 450ml, and 600ml capacities, the Pocket Range is purpose-designed for community settings, fitting neatly into a bag or pocket. Each bin is specifically shaped to maximise sharps containment while occupying minimal space, making it a practical choice for those who need a reliable and discreet disposal solution.
The Pocket Sharps Bin features a range of thoughtful design elements, including temporary and permanent closure features, a compact size, and a carry handle for ease of use.
They are latex-free, leak-resistant, and puncture-resistant, with a moulded lid and in-mould label for added safety. The sharps bins also include a fill line and offers over 80% of usable volume. For specific waste segregation needs, different colour lids are available upon enquiry.
