Sharps Container 5L

Designed for safe, compliant disposal of needles, syringes and other sharps, this 5L sharps container is puncture-resistant, leak-proof and features a secure self-locking lid. Ideal for hospitals, clinics, laboratories, veterinary practices and home diabetes care, the Sharps Container 5L reduces needlestick injuries and simplifies biohazard waste management.

Key Benefits

  • Puncture-resistant, rigid construction for safe disposal of needles and sharps.
  • 5-litre capacity reduces handling frequency while remaining compact for easy storage and transport.
  • Self-locking, tamper-proof lid prevents reopening, meeting safety and compliance needs.
  • Clear fill line and visible biohazard symbol for safe use and regulatory compliance.
  • Leak-proof design minimizes contamination risk during storage and transport.
  • Suitable for clinical environments and at-home use for diabetes and injection therapies.
Ingredients and Materials

Constructed from high-density polyethylene (HDPE) or medical-grade polypropylene (PP) — durable, puncture-resistant plastics commonly used in sharps containers. Features include a tamper-proof, self-locking lid, secure snap-fit or twist-lock mechanism, integrated carry handle, and a printed biohazard symbol and fill line. Materials are selected for chemical resistance, impact strength and regulatory compatibility.

How to Use
  1. Place the container on a stable, flat surface with the opening facing up.
  2. Deposit needles, syringes and other sharps point-first into the container. Do not push hands into the opening.
  3. Do not overfill — stop at the marked fill line (typically 3/4 full). Overfilling increases risk of injury.
  4. When full, engage the self-locking mechanism to permanently seal the lid.
  5. Dispose of the sealed container according to local biohazard waste regulations or return it to an approved medical waste service.
Who It’s For

Healthcare professionals, hospitals, clinics, laboratories, dental and veterinary practices, pharmacies and community health centres. Also ideal for home users managing insulin or injectable medications, mobile care teams and harm-reduction programs requiring a reliable, compliant 5L sharps disposal solution.

Caution & Storage

For single use with sharps only. Keep out of reach of children. Do not force hands or objects into the container. Store upright at room temperature away from direct sunlight and heat sources. Once sealed, treat as regulated medical waste — follow local, regional and national disposal requirements. Wear protective gloves when handling filled containers if required by workplace policy. Do not incinerate unless specifically instructed by waste management guidelines.
