Daniels Medismart
The Daniels Medismart is the first medical waste containment system in the world which actively protects against infection risk and proactively assists in positive waste segregation. The bagless reusable Medismart container offers a unique paradigm shift in clinical and environmental consciousness.
The Daniels Medismart system introduces a new standard of safe medical waste management.
Since medical waste was regulated in 1986, disposal methodologies have expanded to include bins of various sizes lined with red bags. Typical practices in US hospitals is that the bags are collected and consolidated for shipment and final processing and destruction; a process which leads to handling medical waste 2, 3, or even 4 times from the point of generation through to placement at the dock ready for disposal. With spillages and incorrectly disposed sharps piercing bags, these practices can lead to high safety risks, inflated labor costs, and greater exposure to infection transfer.
The Medismart has been proven to reduce medical waste volumes by up to 65%, significantly reducing labor and disposal costs. Reducing infection risk and delivering segregation efficiencies and environmental burden reduction, the Medismart combats logistical challenges commonly associated with healthcare waste disposal whilst keeping staff and patient safety the highest priority.
Dramatically reduced infection transfer
Using a foot-pedal opening mechanism and bagless system means hand contact with the container is no longer required.
This no-touch alternative results in a dramatic reduction in the infection transfer risk that currently exists using standard medical waste containers. The Medismart reusable system ensures that once full, each container is removed from your premises, emptied, and then subjected to a rigorous 6-stage robotic wash and sanitization process that eliminates challenge organisms and proves a 106 Log reduction in bacterial load.
We need to Evolve
In the last three decades, despite rapid advancements within the medical industry, healthcare waste management practices have remained largely unchanged.
- Stationary, open-lidded and/or full-touch waste receptacles are used in patient-care areas
- The practice of transferring medical waste into bags or cardboard boxes is too common
- Unwashed containers pose a heightened risk of spillage, dirt residue, and infection transfer
- Preventable Sharps injuries happen from overfilled containers and penetrable packaging
We place Safety First.
Founded as a safety innovation company, our touchless containers and risk-minimizing innovation has radically shaped hospital waste management across some of the world’s leading healthcare brands. Led by science with products designed in partnership with clinicians – Daniels containers lead the world in best practice waste containment.
