Our Sanitary Disposal Service offers a safe, discreet and hygienic way of handling a delicate situation. As with our Nappy unit each sanitary unit is dosed with specially formulated aromatic granules and not a plastic liner, which ensures that the unit operates effectively in slowing decomposition of the contents, inhibiting bacterial growth and minimising malodour. The unit is collected on a cyclical basis by a uniformed (for identification) fully trained Pink Healthcare staff member and replaced with a freshly sterilised and sanitised unit. The full unit is returned to our Depot Facility where the contents are removed and disposed of in full compliance with EPA guidelines. The unit then undergoes a high temperature sanitising process which kills any bacteria or waste products remaining within the unit. In compliance with OH&S guidelines, 2 x 26 litre containers are provided, keeping the weight of full units within lifting guidelines.
Granules versus Plastic Liners
Our granules contain an anti-bacterial agent, this inhibits the growth of bacteria in turn slowing the de-composition of the contents and absorbing odour. Plastic Liners create a “bacteria-friendly” environment (heat & moisture promote growth) and accelerate, rather than retard de-composition therefore exaggerating odour rather than suppressing it.
The use of Plastic Liners is merely a waste disposal approach – a receptacle to hold the waste pending pick up and disposal, from a hygiene/OH&S perspective, the liners provide no real benefit.
