Hazardous and Biohazardous Waste Disposal Bags and Containers

All styles (except wire-frame holders) are clearly marked with the universal biohazard symbol, hazardous waste labeling, or are bright red in color for easy identification.
Hazardous and Biohazardous Waste Overview
Any waste that may contain contaminated, infectious, or chemically dangerous substances is considered hazardous or biohazardous. This includes:
- Biohazardous waste: materials that may spread disease in humans, animals, or the environment. Examples include:
- Sharps (needles, blades, glass)
- Certain body fluids
- Human and animal blood or tissue
- Recombinant DNA
- Animal or plant pathogens
These wastes must be separated from general waste and disposed of using approved biohazard containers or bags.
- Hazardous waste: substances that pose chemical or physical risks. Categories include:
- Corrosive – strong acids, bases, cleaning agents
- Reactive – unstable or explosive chemicals, oxidizers
- Toxic – heavy metals, pesticides, poisonous compounds
Improper disposal may cause harm to people, animals, and the environment, making proper containment and disposal essential.
Both categories of waste should always be identified, segregated, and disposed of using appropriate, clearly labeled containers in compliance with safety and environmental regulations.

Bags for biohazard waste are used in hospitals and other healthcare facilities to safely collect and dispose of hazardous medical waste such as linen, blood products, and materials contaminated with bodily fluids. These plastic bags are printed with words and symbols to identify the contents and encourage proper handling and disposal, protecting workers from unnecessary exposure and ensuring disposal procedures are followed. Use these bags in stands, receptacles, and bag racks to keep them open. Hazardous waste bags and transport bags are used to collect infectious medical waste, as well as waste that contains heavy metals, toxic materials, and chemicals that require special handling. Hazardous waste bags are used in hospitals, nursing homes, and industrial settings where hazardous waste is produced.
