Sharpak - preventing needlesitck injuries

Used clinical needles can pose a very real danger, and it’s not where one might assume. Concerning data from the NHS* reveals that it is the ancillary staff – the support workers, the cleaners, those moving the waste bins, that are in the most danger. A needle stick to an unsuspecting person can cause injury, the spread of disease, mental trauma and costly lawsuits and compensation pay outs. In a four-year period alone, the NHS was forced to pay out over £4m in avoidable needle stick claims.

“We try and only work with one supplier as it’s better to standardise all our training. The rotational closure of Sharpak is much safer as you can close the bin without your hand going anywhere near the opening, plus there is no chance of overfilling.”
