OnSite Waste Technologies
OnSite Waste Technology is a firm located in
Newport Beach, California. We are committed to
lowering the risk, cost, and effects that medical
waste treatment and disposal leave on the
environment. Our current technology TE-5000 is a
processing unit of the size of a desktop but
transforms the waste, including syringes into
disinfected garbage. It lessens the CO2 influence
by lessening waste. Our mission is to reduce the
transportation of waste to any common location.
We are dedicated to presenting greener and
cleaner options for processing the disposal of
medical wastes. We also look forward to assisting
NGOs, first responders, and government agencies
to dispose of large quantities of sharps waste to
minimize the risk for community members, workers,
and others.

Safe Disposal of Medical Sharps An Important
Health Concern
Sharps is a medical term used for devices that
have sharp points or edges capable of puncturing
or cutting skin. They are items necessary for
administering medicines or manage medical
conditions, including allergies, cancer,
diabetes, arthritis, hepatitis, infertility,
migraines, HIV/AIDS, multiple sclerosis, blood
clotting disorders, osteoporosis, and psoriasis.
Used sharps are potentially harmful as well as
infectious and hence, it is very important to
follow proper techniques of medical sharps
disposal to avoid spreading of diseases.

Methods of Medical Sharps Disposal
It is mandatory to dispose of used sharps
immediately by placing them in a container
designated for sharps disposal. There are a
variety of FDA-cleared sharps containers
available in the market that can be obtained
through medical supply companies, pharmacies,
health care providers as well as through online
stores. These medical sharps disposal
containers are made with plastic that cannot be
easily punctured and have leak-resistant sides as
well as the bottom. They also come with a
tight-fitting, puncture-resistant
lid. Alternatively, the latest innovative
solutions for medical waste disposal are also
available in the market. They do not require any
separate storage before treating medical sharps.
Such products can turn medical waste into
sterilized trash that is safe to be disposed of
in a garbage can without any hazardous side
effects.

Importance of Safe Disposal of Medical Sharps
Needles or other medical sharps that have already
been used can pose serious and dangerous health
risks to people and pets if they are not disposed
of safely. This is because people can be injured
by them and get infected. The most common of the
infections include Hepatitis B (HBV), Hepatitis C
(HCV), and Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV).
That is why safe disposal of medical sharps is
essential irrespective of whether they are used
at home, at school, at work, while traveling, or
in any public places like hotels, parks, or
restaurants. It is crucial not to dispose of any
loose needles and other used medical sharps that
have not been put into a sharps disposal
container, in an open, easily accessible trashcan
or recycling bin. They should not be flushed down
the toilet as it can put the janitors, trash and
sewage workers, household members, housekeepers,
and children at risk of being harmed.
