Our Global Brand
As a global brand operating in seven countries, Sharpsmart has become a brand name synonymous with safety, innovation and unstoppable vision.
The Sharpsmart Logo
The name ‘Sharpsmart’ was assumed as our company identity in 2000, paying homage to our industry-leading sharps container.
The lion icon takes its relevance from the biblical story of Daniel in the lions den. An inspiring metaphor, the historical story exemplifies the courage of a young man in the face of formidable circumstances holding true to his vision, and more importantly, his beliefs. The lion has been used in many ancient cultures as a figure of strength, balance and sound judgment, in the modern world as an icon of leadership and courage, and in nature as an animal seen to possess natural strength and dignity.
“Sharpsmart's visual identity captures the fluidity, innovative edge, and professionalism of this purpose-driven brand. With its name instilling our unwavering commitment to the continuinity of healthcare safety excellence, we are very proud of all that Sharpsmart stands for in the global healthcare industry”
Laura Wakelam, Chief Marketing Officer
