What constitutes Biomedical Waste?

What is biomedical waste disposal? Biomedical waste, also known as regulated medical waste, red bag waste or biohazardous waste, includes any solid waste or liquid waste contaminated with blood, human body fluids, or other materials that could potentially spread infections. Biomedical waste encompasses anatomical waste, sharps, laboratory waste, among others, and can pose serious health hazards if not properly separated. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention defines medical waste as "waste sufficiently capable of causing infection during its handling and disposal." Our product range includes disposal containers for all related waste types these facilities produce, such as regulated medical waste, sharps, pharmaceuticals, chemotherapy, and hazardous waste.
