Cytotoxic Waste Disposal

Infection Prevention and Waste | A new paradigm

Rethinking how biomedical waste impacts the clinical environment

We talk about hand-hygiene, we talk about “touches” and the spread of infection, what we don’t talk about is the impact waste in a patient environment has on infection control. Bins being wheeled from ICU through to a loading dock, static containers that never undergo high-pressure wash or sanitisation, open-lidded bins in patient wards. At Daniels, we are rethinking what clinical means when it comes to sharps disposal, pharmaceutical waste security, and biomedical waste management

Daniels Industry-Leading Chemosmart

​​​​​​​33% Reduction in Waste Volumes & Associated Costs

In every disposable container, approximately 33% of the total volume of the container when full is plastic from the container itself! With Chemosmart this means you will: 

1. No longer be sending 33% of each container’s plastic volume unnecessarily to landfill

2. No longer pay for disposal of 33% of volume additional to the chemotherapy wastes generated.

3. No longer pay for plastic liners, outer packaging, procurement or container disposal costs

4. No longer have risks associated with spills, cross-contamination or penetration. Containers designed by clinicians with industry-leading safety and security features. 

Why Reusable Sharps containers are better for the environment

As healthcare facilities across Canada increasingly focus on reducing the environmental impact of their waste streams (and as environmental impact regulations increase), it is vital to understand the difference between disposing of sharps, cytotoxic and pharmaceutical waste in ‘reusable’ containers, and disposing of them in ‘disposable’ or ‘recyclable’ containers.
