Lets look at clinical waste management costs in human terms
In many healthcare facilities, costs of clinical waste disposal skyrocket because unnecessary waste volumes are finding their way into clinical waste bins – burger wrappers, cola cans and empty coffee cups. At Sharpsmart we work on driving cost reductions through in-depth training, container positioning that encourages positive segregation behaviours, colour-coded containers with clear labelling, and ongoing audits to determine problem locations. We help you ensure the right waste goes into the right bin so your facility is compliant and your costs are managed.
Clinical Waste Containers designed for safety
Sharpsmart has reconsidered safety and security in the patient setting.
For sharps, cytotoxic, pharmaceutical and clinical waste, more is required to protect the safety of staff and patients. Sharpsmart has worked across UK and global healthcare settings for over 30 years, collaborating with clinicians to design the safest, most user-accessible and secure healthcare waste containment systems in the world. Tamper-proof, penetration-resistant, leakproof, hands-free, UN approved to require no decanting or secondary packaging, and sanitised through a high tolerance robotic washing process – we are changing safety at every step of the user journey.
Compliance and Segregation How Can We Help You?
If there has been one thing we have learned in our years of serving healthcare professionals, it is simply that ‘training work is never done’.
Staff education is an ongoing process; roles change, new regulations are enforced, and areas of clinical focus respond to industry need. At Sharpsmart, we’re passionate about education because we have seen it transform safety, compliance and waste management efficiency at countless healthcare facilities, it is the X-Factor in driving staff efficiency and cost reductions!
Verify. An effective management tool.
The Verify program is designed not only to expedite the working efficiencies of clinical staff in compliant waste diagnosis, but also to collect valuable data for continuous improvements. All search criteria is catalogued by individual department, distilling the waste, contaminants and methods of waste containment data into a consolidated format that can be used to develop focused auditing reports.
With different user levels, restrictions can be set for specific users and/or categories of users accessing the portal, ensuring management-level visibility can be maintained without risk of unauthorised data access or retrieval.
Green. Sustainable. Carbon Reduction.
At Sharpsmart we are passionate about aligning our collection, transport and treatment processes with the greenest solutions available
Across the full spectrum of healthcare waste management, from manufacturing to recycling, washing processes, transport and treatment, we have driven innovation to ensure that as a company we are the most environmentally-best versions of ourselves that we can be.

“Would recommend to everyone…”
We are extremely pleased with the service we are receiving from Sharpsmart. The sharps bins are a lot safer than what we were previously using and can be wall mounted really easily. Collections are always on time and consignment notes provided. We would recommend Sharpsmart to anyone and everyone.

“14% clinical waste reduction…”
Before using Sharpsmart, we were having issues with sharps bins not being correctly used, increasing the risk around sharps disposal. Through the introduction of Sharpsmart, the amount of clinical waste we send for incineration has reduced to 14% of our clinical waste – a saving of 10 tonnes per year – just by removing the plastic containers.

“Reduces our footprint…”
The reason why we chose to use the Sharpsmart sharps container was due to the sustainability issues of being able to recycle the actual sharps bin rather than incinerating them and causing more issues with carbon footprint.

“Reduced Clinical waste by 58%…”
From switching over to the Sharpsmart system: in a 12-month period, we reduced our clinical waste by 58%. That in turn saved our organisation nearly £7,500
