Safely disposing of waste in the dental practice is a significant responsibility. Following current guidance minimises the risk of injury to patients, clinicians, and waste handlers, as well as the risk of harm to the environment.

Solutions like the Griff Pac containers from Initial Medical are on hand for regulatory compliance and increased safety. The Griff Pac units are made from at least 70% recycled plastic, protecting the environment, and are colour coded in line with Health Technical Memorandum 07-01.

Dental practices can choose to use Griff Pac containers to collect and dispose of clinical waste, particularly items like plastic suction tips, PPE, and other potentially contaminated materials.

Each is lightweight and can be flat-packed, for optimum use of storage space.

Find out more about the Griff Pac containers by contacting the Initial Medical team today.
