Initial’s range of dental waste containers are UN-approved and designed for the safe storage of each dental waste stream.
All of our PureGuard™ dental amalgam waste containers include a unique mercury vapour suppressant inside our high-quality, robust containers. This minimises your exposure to dangerous mercury vapours.
Mercury vapour is colourless, odourless and tasteless. Our PureGuard™ technology uses colour to demonstrate when mercury vapours have been absorbed within the container. This keeps your practice safe and compliant prior to collection by one of Initial Medical's expert local technicians.
Make sure that your dental practice meets legislation and mercury exposure limits - contact us or call 0800 030 4005 to speak to an Initial Medical expert now.
