Complete guide: Plastic container 5 liter for sharps/sharps waste

It is the rigid, yellow container where you safely dispose of everything that remains sharp and contaminated after a session: needles, whole tattoo cartridges, microblading blades, and other sharps. With a 5-liter capacity, it is intended for high-volume tattoo and piercing studios or those with multiple artists working simultaneously. Its role is simple but essential: it keeps hazardous waste isolated, without risk of accidental needlestick injury, until it reaches an authorized disposal center. It is made of puncture-resistant plastic (conforming to standard EN ISO 23907) and ADR certified for road transport.

How to use

  1. Place the open container on a stable, flat surface as close to the work station as possible, so you don't have to carry sharps across the studio.
  2. Label it before use with the unit name and the date of first use (opening date).
  3. Dispose of used sharps directly through the wide opening immediately after use. The opening accepts whole tattoo cartridges, so there is no need to disassemble them.
  4. Do not push or tamp down waste with your finger or hand. Let them fall in on their own.
  5. Do not exceed the useful capacity (approximately 4.2 liters out of 5) — an overfilled container cannot be closed properly and increases the risk of accidents.
  6. When full, note the sealing date and close the lid permanently. The locking system is permanent, so the container cannot be reopened.
  7. Keep it sealed, upright, and hand it over to the authorized hazardous medical waste collection company.

Tips from us

  • Keep a spare container in the studio so you are not caught off guard when the one in use fills up in the middle of a session.
  • Tattoo cartridges are disposed of whole, with the grip — the wide opening is sized for this.
  • If you work in a space accessible to clients, keep the lid in the intermediate position (without sealing it) between sessions to avoid accidental contact.
  • Never retrieve an object that has been thrown into the container — once inside, it stays there.
  • Place it on a wide, stable base; the larger capacity makes it less prone to tipping, but it is still worth keeping away from walkways.
Warning: The container contains biohazardous waste (waste code 18 01 01 — sharps; UN 3291, classes 6.1 and 6.2). It is single-use: it is not emptied, reused, or recycled — it is handed over sealed, with its contents, to an authorized company for incineration. Do not fill it beyond the useful capacity and never force objects inside. Once sealed, the lid cannot be reopened. Always handle it upright and follow hygiene procedures and protective equipment when changing it.

Frequently asked questions

Do whole tattoo cartridges fit in the container?

Yes. The opening is wide and accepts whole tattoo cartridges, including grip models. You don't need to disassemble the cartridge — you throw it in directly, which also reduces the risk of contact with the contaminated part.

Can I empty and reuse it after it's full?

No. It is a single-use container. It is not emptied, washed, or recycled for sanitary safety reasons. It is permanently sealed when full and handed over to an authorized company, which disposes of it by incineration along with its contents.

Is it suitable for a piercing studio as well, not just a tattoo studio?

Yes, it is universal for any contaminated sharps. It collects tattoo needles and cartridges just as well as piercing needles, microblading blades, or other sharp objects used in procedures.

Which capacity should I choose — 5 liters or a smaller one?

The 5-liter version is designed for high-volume studios or those with multiple artists working simultaneously, as it reduces the frequency of changes. If you work alone and have a low client volume, a smaller capacity may suffice. Choose based on how many sharps you generate between collections.

How do I hand it over for collection when it's full?

You seal it permanently, note the sealing date, and transport it upright. Being ADR certified, road transport of hazardous medical waste is legally permitted; typically, the authorized collection company picks it up directly from the studio.

How puncture-resistant is it?

It is made of rigid, puncture-resistant plastic, conforming to standard EN ISO 23907 for sharps waste containers. The walls are designed so that sharp objects cannot puncture the container during storage or transport.

Frequently Asked Questions How many working days does the 5-liter container last? For a studio with 2-3 active artists, the 5-liter container covers approximately 1-2 weeks of work. For a single artist, it can last up to a month depending on client numbers. What advantages does it have over 1 or 3 liter containers? The larger capacity reduces change frequency and cost per liter of capacity. It's more stable on the work surface due to the wider base and less likely to accidentally tip over. Do whole tattoo cartridges fit through the insertion opening? Yes, the insertion opening is generously sized to allow disposal of whole tattoo cartridges, including larger models with grips. No need to disassemble the cartridge. Is it suitable for piercing studios too? Yes, the container is universal and suitable for both tattoo and piercing studios. It collects piercing needles, catheters, cannulas and any other sharps used in procedures. How is the full container transported to the collection company? The sealed container is transported upright, in secondary packaging if necessary. ADR certification allows legal road transport. The collection company usually picks up directly from the studio. Is the plastic material recyclable? No, sharps containers are incinerated together with their contents according to hazardous medical waste disposal procedures. Recycling is prohibited for sanitary safety reasons. What happens if the container accidentally breaks? The high-quality rigid plastic makes breaking extremely unlikely. In the unlikely event of damage, isolate the area, equip PPE and transfer contents to a new container. Can I use the container for pharmaceutical waste too? The container is intended exclusively for sharps waste. Pharmaceutical waste (expired medications, vials) has separate collection circuits and requires dedicated containers. What quality standard does the container meet? The container is manufactured according to EN ISO 23907 standards for sharps containers and holds ADR certification for road transport of dangerous goods class 6.2. Does the container need to be labeled with additional information? Yes, in addition to pre-printed markings, the container must be labeled with the generating unit name, start date of use and sealing date. This information is verified during inspections.
