Biomedical Waste Collection Bags:

Biomedical waste collection bags are specially designed disposable bags used for the safe disposal of medical and healthcare-related waste. These bags are color-coded and made from high-quality, durable plastic that is resistant to punctures and leaks. They help in the proper segregation, transportation, and disposal of hazardous and non-hazardous medical waste in healthcare facilities.

How to Use:

1. Choose the Right Bag Color:

   • Yellow Bag – Used for infectious waste, human anatomical waste, and soiled waste.

   • Red Bag – Used for contaminated waste like tubes, gloves, syringes (without needles), IV sets, etc.

   • Blue/White Bag – Used for sharps like needles, blades, scalpels (in puncture-proof containers).

   • Black Bag – Used for general waste or non-hazardous biomedical waste.

2. Segregate the Waste Properly:

   • Ensure that each type of waste goes into the designated bag to prevent contamination.

   • Never mix different types of waste in the same bag.

3. Seal the Bag Securely:

   • Once the bag is filled up to the recommended limit, securely tie or seal it to prevent leakage or spillage.

4. Label the Bag:

   • Some waste bags require labeling for identification, especially if they contain hazardous waste.

5. Dispose of as Per Regulations:

   • The bags should be collected and disposed of according to local biomedical waste management guidelines, usually through an authorized waste disposal agency.
