Sharps solutions help municipalities and cities with the proper disposal of unused or expired medications, needles, syringes and lancets into the public waste stream and water systems. Our all-in-one solutions are cost effective, easy-to-implement and green. Medical waste is not only eliminated from the waste stream, it is repurposed into PELLA-DRX, a renewable industrial material.
