Sharps Container, Round, 6.5 L

The 6.5 L Round Sharps Container is a high-capacity, heavy-duty biohazardous waste vessel engineered for the safe containment, transport, and disposal of contaminated medical sharps and rigid clinical instruments. Manufactured from medical-grade, puncture-resistant high-density polypropylene (HDPP), this container fully complies with OSHA, WHO, and ISO 23907 standards for biohazard containment. Its cylindrical design maximizes interior volume efficiency and structural integrity, preventing side-wall collapsing under load. Featuring a 6.5-liter capacity, this container serves as an optimal waste management solution for high-volume clinical settings, including operating rooms, intensive care units (ICUs), emergency departments, dialyzing units, and centralized phlebotomy stations.

Features:

• High-Impact Puncture & Fluid Integrity: Molded from heavy-gauge, high-density polypropylene (HDPP) with a fluid-impermeable body that resists penetration forces exceeding international ISO 23907 requirements and protects against chemical degradation.
• Large-Aperture Rotary Lid: Designed with a wide-entry counterbalanced lid that accommodates larger discarded items—such as IV catheters, butterfly needles, and surgical scalpels—while preventing hand entry and reducing splashback exposure.
• Dual-Stage Locking Mechanism: Equipped with a temporary closure function for safe intra-facility mobility and a permanent, tamper-proof final lock to ensure complete containment prior to autoclaving or incineration.
• High-Visibility Biohazard Markings & Fill-Line: Color-coded in accordance with international biohazard safety regulations (vivid yellow and red) and clearly stamped with an anti-rub fill-line indicator set at 85% maximum operating capacity (5.525 L) to guard against overfill hazards.
• Cylindrical Structural Stability: Engineered with a wide, anti-topple circular base that delivers maximum stability on flat work surfaces, countertops, or dedicated floor stands.
• Eco-Friendly Incineration & Autoclave Compatibility: Fully autoclavable via high-pressure steam sterilization and suitable for eco-friendly incineration, decomposing into harmless carbon dioxide and water without releasing toxic halogenated byproducts.
