What type of waste is the yellow bag intended for? ▼
This yellow waste bag is made for clinical waste that is both infectious and contaminated with medicinal agents or chemicals, or other hazardous biological waste.
Can sharps be disposed of in the yellow biohazard bag? ▼
Sharps must not be placed directly into a clinical waste bag. Needles, syringes and other sharps should instead go into a designated sharps bin.
When should a yellow waste bag be sealed and disposed of? ▼
A yellow waste bag should be sealed before transport once it is no more than two thirds full or approaching its safe fill limit, to avoid overfilling or risk of bag rupture.
What size is the waste bag? ▼
This biohazard waste bag is 20 cm × 30 cm, suitable for small volumes of clinical waste or sharps containers awaiting collection. For a bulk ordering alternative, we strongly recommend the Biohazard Clinical Waste Yellow Bag 50 pack.
Is adhesive closure provided on the biohazard bag? ▼
This clinical waste bag has an adhesive strip to allow secure sealing, helping to minimise contamination risk during storage or removal.
