Responsible, compliant drug waste disposaL.

Disposing of dangerous drugs in a legally compliant, safe, and cost-effective way is a challenge for hospitals, day surgeries, general practitioners, aged care, veterinarians, and laboratories across Australia.

The solution to safe drug waste disposal

DrugWaste International’s innovative DrugWaste Bins provide responsible and compliant drug waste disposal. By utilising a unique gel solution, DrugWaste Bins render drugs irretrievable and unrecognisable to help organisations meet regulatory requirements.

This means drug waste can be safely managed without posing a danger to the community or to the environment. It also reduces disposal costs, with DrugWaste Bins allowing medication packaging to be safely recycled or diverted to cheaper general waste streams.
