Health Technical Memorandum 07-01 details the colour scheme all dental practices must use when segregating clinical waste.

Choose Griff Pac containers from Initial Medical as a solution that optimises waste segregation, whilst protecting clinicians, patients and the wider environment.

The Griff Pac is a sturdy, puncture-proof bin made from corrugated polypropylene, with an integral HDPE liner. This means that despite its light-weight, flat-packed structure, it is also seepage-proof, and minimises waste spillage.

It is also an eco-friendly solution, with a 25% reduction in CO₂ emissions during production, and a 64% reduction in CO₂emissions from raw materials when compared to standard rigid containers.

The containers are available in orange, blue, and yellow to support correct waste segregation and in line with HTM 07-01, ensuring your dental practice is compliant with the latest regulations.

When managing clinical waste in your dental practice, choose solutions you can rely upon. Contact the Initial Medical team for more details.
