Medical waste
We can provide you with suitable packaging for storing and transporting medical waste. Medical waste is a waste stream which is subject to many regulations. Medical waste concerns waste products arising from medical treatments. The government imposes stringent requirements regarding the hygiene, storage and transport of such waste. This is in view of the risk of contamination and needlestick injury. We have special waste containers that meet these requirements.
