Encapsulated Sharps
Sharps containers with encapsulant help to provide a safe, cost-effective method of containment and disposal of medical waste for many light users of sharps including home health care, dental and physician offices, satellite healthcare facilities, health clubs, and hotels.  Simply put the sharps into the container, add encapsulant material, seal it up, and it can now be safely removed in normal household waste.
