This 6-gallon biohazardous waste can from Eagle Manufacturing handles temporary storage of potential biohazards in healthcare facilities, labs, and industrial settings. Built from red high-density polyethylene, it features a foot-operated self-closing lid that lets you dispose of contaminated materials hands-free. The seamless construction prevents leaks while the flared base adds stability during use.
The red HDPE construction resists most chemical compounds and won't rust or dent like metal alternatives. A prominent BIOHAZARDOUS sticker on the front alerts workers to potential hazards and helps you meet OSHA 29 CFR 1910.1030 bloodborne pathogen requirements. This unit carries FM approval and is manufactured entirely in the USA at Eagle's Wellsburg, West Virginia facility.
Works well in medical offices, veterinary clinics, research labs, or any workplace where you need secure biohazard waste containment. The foot lever operation keeps contaminated hands away from the lid while the 6-gallon capacity handles moderate waste volumes without frequent emptying.
