Red Liners for Medical Waste Disposal in South Africa

Red liners help South African healthcare facilities identify and separate suitable medical waste before collection. Clear packaging supports safer handling and reduces confusion with general waste.

Correct use

Red liners may be used for suitable contaminated soft healthcare waste. They should not be used for loose needles, blades or other sharps.

Best practices

• Separate waste at the point of generation.
• Use sharps containers for needles and blades.
• Do not overfill liners.
• Seal and store securely before collection.
