Dental Waste Disposal

Sharpsmart’s clean container movement is changing the industry’s perception of how clinical waste should be disposed and transported.

In typical healthcare settings, reusable containers are lined with a bag and decanted once the bag is full. This practice leads to bins in patient environments not been cleaned, harbouring pathogens and accelerating risk of cross-contamination. At Sharpsmart, all of our sharps, clinical waste, cytotoxic and pharmaceutical containers are hands-free, and furthermore undergo a rigorous 6-stage robotic washing decontamination and sanitisation process after each use. We are proud to be “moving the goalposts” of what safety in clinical waste containers should look like, our results across needlestick injury reduction, segregation, cost reduction and landfill diversion prove that we’re on the right path!

Click, Categorise and Dispose. It’s that simple!

With a database of hundreds of items weighted against current legislation, contamination profiles and your own facility’s waste designation rules, our mobile waste categorisation tool is redefining self-learn healthcare waste segregation. Designed for intuitive navigation on mobile or tablet enabling use at point of waste generation, Sharpsmart’s VERIFY tool ensures that clinical staff are educated and confident in the categorisation and disposal of offensive, infectious and pharmaceutical waste.

Peer reviewed in four independent studies, clinically proven to reduce Sharps Injuries by up to 87%, and relied on by healthcare facilities around the world, the Sharpsmart sharps containment system is driven by a single objective – To Save Lives. Designed with 13 safety features, manufactured with needle-impenetrable plastic, a gravity balanced safety tray for risk-free sharps disposal, and a built-in overfill protection mechanism, the Sharpsmart is the most advanced sharps container system in the world.

Our Drivers, Our Trucks, Our Responsibility

Unlike other waste management service providers, we protect the process from generation to disposal, assuming full responsibility for the security of your waste. As the waste generator is responsible for waste produced UNTIL such time as it is disposed of, having a clinical waste partner that assumes full responsibility of the clinical waste pickup, transport and disposal is critical. To ensure your risk is minimised, it is our drivers, our trucks and our licensed clean processing facilities that manage your waste.

Moving from Volume to Value, the safest, most sustainable and financially beneficial method of Healthcare waste minimisation is to segregate at source.

Effective point of generation segregation ensures the lowest cost impact, improved sustainability, compliance and labour efficiency assurance. Sharpsmart’ clinically designed waste optimisation program will reduce patient interruptions to a minimum and ensure all waste reduction opportunities are realised. Choosing reusable products to reduce environmental impact, placing segregation at the forefront of our training, and offering revolutionary waste processing and washing methods that are proven to achieve the highest levels of microbiological efficacy, Sharpsmart has taken the greening of healthcare waste to the next level.
