Sharps Containers
At Bemis, the first priority in sharps container development is safety--safety for your patients and your staff. All units are designed for safe use, effectively blocking hand access from discarded sharps. Units snap together, permanently locking with tight seams between the bases and covers. Walls are puncture-resistant too, meeting or exceeding ASTM standards. Designed for high volume use in pharmacy, OR, lab, dialysis, ER and X-ray, these containers provide convenient, safe disposal of a variety of sharps, infectious waste and chemotherapy waste. |

The SharpSentinel™ sharps containers used in the cabinets feature a rotating cylinder top that provides hands free disposal of used sharps. Horizontal drop feature maximizes container volume. Available in translucent beige and red, these containers meet or exceed current ASTM standards for wall thickness. |
SharpSentinel™ Wall Cabinet System
The SharpSentinel™ Wall Cabinet System secure sharps containers in a sturdy locked enclosure. SharpSentinel™ wall cabinets are perfect for use in patient rooms, exam rooms, physician and dentist offices, and any other areas where staff supervision is limited. Designed to protect staff from accidental needlesticks, this new system complies with all OSHA, NIOSH, CDC, and JCAHO requirements. Available in 3 Gallon and 5 Quart sizes, Bemis’s new cabinets provide a more modern look than traditional cabinets. The neutral color blends with any décor and the tinted door obscures contents, yet allows easy visibility of fill level. An inside warning label alerts staff to possible danger and also provides reorder numbers for replacement containers. These cabinets are made of tough ABS plastic so they’re durable, easy to clean, and stain resistant. All cabinets, regardless of size, are keyed alike for added convenience. An optional glove box holder that snaps onto the bottom of the container keeps gloves readily available.
