Principal Hygiene will work with you to establish your requirements and provide a regular collection of your waste and providing you with a disposal consignment note and Duty of Care documentation. Unlike many others WE DO NOT CHARGE for waste disposal confirmation of Duty of Care documents.
Staying Compliant – Sharps Bins Disposal
Tattoo parlours must have sharps waste bins for the disposal of used needles, razors, and other sharp objects contaminated with blood or bodily fluids and with an authorised waste carrier to dispose of your sharp bins.
Our container range for sharps EXCLUDING those contaminated with MEDICINAL products and their residues consists of 0.5, 3.75, 5, 11.5 and 22 ltr. Our most popular is the 5 ltr (this is approximately the size of an ice bucket). EWC codes 18-01-01, 18-01-03, 18-02-01, 18-02-02.
