Safe, Ecological and Cost-minimising solutions for veterinary practices

Changing the world one sharp at a time

Peer reviewed in some of the world’s leading medical journals, the Sharpsmart system has proven greater reduction in sharps injuries than any other sharps containment system in the world

With over 5 years of research invested into its design and engineering, the Sharpsmart collector is manufactured to precise tolerances to ensure that all safety mechanisms are functional on each and every collector. Fitted with an engineered maximum sensitivity safety tray, users are protected in hands-free disposal of sharps and needles. The Sharpsmart is more than just a sharps container, it is an engineered safety device proven to dramatically reduce needlestick injury rates, minimise infection transfer, and substantially improve the risk profile of all organisations that generate and handle healthcare waste.

Dramatically reduced infection transfer risk

Foot-pedal operated bagless system

This no-touch alternative results in a dramatic reduction in the infection transfer risk that currently exists using standard clinical waste containers. The Clinismart reusable system ensures that once full, each container is removed from your premises, emptied, and then subjected to a rigorous 6-stage robotic wash and sanitisation process that eliminates challenge organisms and proves a 10º Log reduction in bacterial load.

Our Radical Approach

Our Radical approach seeks to:

  • Eliminate or significantly reduce offensive and infectious waste
  • Eliminate needlestick injury risk with engineered sharps containment systems
  • Eliminate the purchasing and assembly of single-use disposable containers
  • Optimise segregation through staff training, intuitive education systems, waste audits and reporting
  • Minimise your risk exposure – It is our drivers and our trucks that will service your facility
  • Make waste flow invisible and unobtrusive; minimising disruption to patient care
  • Be transparent (especially in our pricing) and make you happy!

“Smooth Transition…”

The implementation of Sharpsmart as our waste disposal company has reignited the staffs interest and concern about waste segregation and our company impact on the environment. We, as a company, strive to do all we can to minimise our carbon footprint, we constantly consider the impact on landfill and the environment. This is what initially brought us to Sharpsmart as a waste disposal agent. The sharps bins with the trays have proved popular with all staff, from the safety aspect. The rollout/transition to using Sharpsmart was very easy with virtually no impact on workflow. Adrian Giles, our Program Manager, ensured that all things ran smoothly. I have never known such a large change in the practice run so well and be received so positively by all staff.
