One of the most significant problem facing Ontario Small Quantity Generators who generate used sharps (needles, blades, broken glass), is the availability of a safe, environmentally compliant and cost-effective system to collect, transport and dispose of these dangerous materials.

Approved sharps disposal containers available through retail or health supply companies are quite expensive and often fall short of regulatory requirements. Typical commercial collection companies provide packaging / shipping containers and collection services that are far in excess of the SQG requirements, which drives up costs.

Medical Waste Management clearly understood this concern and developed the proprietary MWM Sharps-Pak program as a viable solution.

The Sharps-Pak is comprised of a heavy gauge cardboard shipping container with all regulatory safety marks, a heavy plastic liner, 4 patented MWM 5L plastic sharps containers and all required shipping documentation.

The exceptionally competitive cost of the regulatory compliant Sharps-Pak includes ALL packaging components, unit delivery, unit pick-up and finally, approved destruction / disposal.

For the first time, SQG’s have access to exceptional products and services, that do not take up valuable clinic space, do not need to be stored on-site for months or years at a time, meet or exceed applicable regulations and are VERY cost effective.
