Description

The Sharps Horizontal Lid Entry Red 5Qt container is designed for the safe disposal of used sharps, providing an essential solution for healthcare environments. Its horizontal entry lid helps reduce the risk of needle stick injuries by allowing users to deposit sharps with minimal hand movement. The container's 5-quart capacity is ideal for medium-volume use, making it suitable for various healthcare settings, including pediatric, geriatric, or high-risk areas.

One of the standout features of this sharps container is its ability to minimize overfilling. The container automatically stops in the "FULL" position once it reaches maximum capacity, ensuring that no additional sharps can be added, which enhances safety by preventing accidental exposure to contaminated materials.

Durable and user-friendly, the Sharps Horizontal Lid Entry container is an effective solution for maintaining a safe, clean, and compliant environment for sharps disposal. Its design reduces contamination risks while meeting regulatory and safety standards.
