Sharps Container 1 Qt & 5 Qt
Sharps containers, generally made with durable punctured resistance plastic for protection against finger sticks. They are often self-sealing and self-locking for protection against spills. For easy recognition, sharps containers have a universal biohazard symbol on the container. May also be in a yellow container for additional recognition.
Estheticians and other licensed skincare professionals that perform services like dermaplaning, microblading, micro-pigmentation, or micro-needling will need a sharps container to dispose of their needles or blades.
However, each container has a fill line. It is important to not overfill the container. Furthermore, overfilling the container can result in an accidental stick to the professional.
Skincare Professionals OSHA Compliant.
