It is estimated that over 35,000 people suffer the trauma of a sharps injury each year in Australian healthcare facilities. Daniels is committed to reducing this number through safer sharps management systems.
Daniels has caused a paradigm shift by creating the Sharpsmart system. This unique, patented system utilises technologically-advanced materials and components in the construction of its reusable sharps collectors.
Safer, affordable, ecological
An international study of sharps containers showed Daniels' Sharpsmart system achieved sharps injury reductions and was safer than other containers studied1.
The Sharpsmart system is one of few safety devices that is both proven to reduce sharps injuries1 and is comparably priced with the device it replaces.
And being reusable, the system also reduces large volumes of plastic waste discarded to the environment.
Daniels quality
Daniels Sharpsmart collectors are made of durable, high-quality parts that, together with collector design, deliver proven safety benefits1.
Daniels Sharpsmart collectors are made with over 20 purpose-specific parts, each of which has been extensively tested to ensure optimum performance to enhance your safety.
