SANITARY BIN COLLECTION

Sanitary waste disposal is necessary and vital to maintaining a healthy and safe workplace. Every business must prioritize installing hygienic bins to effectively prevent the spread of harmful bacteria and unsightly grime. By taking this essential step, you safeguard your employees' health and ensure compliance with hygiene regulations.

Sanitary bins are indispensable for adequately disposing of feminine hygiene products, such as tampons and pads, which can be breeding grounds for bacteria and germs. If these products are not disposed of correctly, they pose significant risks of illness and contamination. Designed with a lift-flap mechanism, our sanitary bins require minimal contact and feature an antibacterial liner that eliminates 99.99% germs. Additionally, for female employees with children, providing a regularly replaced nappy disposal unit dramatically minimizes the risk of germ transfer.

Choosing A.R.C. means you are not just meeting standards but setting them. Let us help you create a cleaner, healthier work environment today!

In the UK, sanitary waste disposal is regulated by legislation to ensure the safe and hygienic disposal of such waste. The key legislations include:

The Workplace (Health, Safety & Welfare) Regulations 1992 recommend that all businesses provide appropriate units or bins for disposing of sanitary waste in female toilets.

The Water Industries Act 1991 states that sanitary waste should not be flushed away if it may harm the sewer system or drains.

The Environmental Protection Act of 1990 imposes a Duty of Care on businesses and organizations that produce, store, transport, or dispose of controlled waste, including sanitary waste.

As a business, you have a legal responsibility to manage waste without causing harm to the environment. This responsibility is known as your Duty of Care. Importantly, this duty has no time limit. You are responsible for your waste from the moment it is created until it is transferred to an authorized person. However, your duty does not end there; it continues throughout the entire waste management chain. If you suspect that your waste is not being handled properly, you must take action to investigate and prevent any issues.

Sanitary bins play a vital role in eliminating invisible germs and are critical for safely disposing of hazardous waste and sharp objects, as British regulations mandate.

A.R.C. provides top-of-the-line sharp disposal containers and sanitary waste disposal units designed for every workplace, empowering staff and visitors to manage dangerous waste responsibly.

Investing in a sharp waste bin is not just a safety measure—it's a necessity. These bins are engineered explicitly to securely dispose of sharp objects, such as needles, broken glass, razors, scalpel blades, and broken plastic pipettes. The potential for severe injuries, including cuts and puncture wounds, is the least of the concerns. Many of these sharp items may be contaminated with body fluids, blood, toxins, or hazardous chemicals, posing serious health risks.
