What is a Clinical Waste Bin?
A clinical waste bin is a specialised container designed for the safe and secure disposal of clinical waste generated in healthcare facilities, laboratories, and other settings. These bins are an essential part of clinical waste management and play a crucial role in ensuring the safety of staff, patients and the general public, as well as preventing environmental contamination.
What Colour Are Clinical Waste Bins?
Orange bins are used for waste materials contaminated with infectious or potentially infectious bodily fluids or substances, while yellow bins are used for infectious or potentially clinical waste which is contaminated with pharmaceuticals, medicines or chemicals. Finally, tiger stripe bins are suitable for non-infectious or offensive waste.
Our team is here to help you understand and comply with regulations, and our ADR-licensed technicians will ensure that your waste is managed efficiently and safely through:
- Clinical Waste Collection
- Clinical Waste Removal
- Clinical Waste Disposal
What goes in a Clinical Waste Bin?
Clinical waste bins must be used with a clinical waste bag and are suitable for soft clinical waste such as swabs, contaminated PPE and wound dressings.
They are not suitable for the disposal of sharp waste, pharmaceuticals, glassware or liquids. For these waste examples, we would recommend using a dedicated container from our rigid container or sharps bin ranges.
Key Factors to Choose the Right Clinical Waste Bin for You

Colour coding - In managing your clinical waste it's important to segregate it correctly following the NHS colour code guidelines. Our bins and corresponding clinical waste bags are colour-coded to help you and your team segregate your waste correctly at the point of disposal.
