Swann Morton Sharps Removal & Disposal Products
Safe removal and disposal of used scalpel blades is an essential part of working with surgical sharps. The Swann Morton Sharps Removal & Disposal range includes specialist products designed to help make blade removal, containment and disposal safer and more convenient.
???? AGE RESTRICTION – 18+ ONLY FOR BLADE REMOVAL PRODUCTS
Products designed for the removal or disposal of scalpel blades may only be purchased by customers aged 18 or over. Age verification may be required. Always handle used blades and sharps with extreme care and follow appropriate safety procedures.
Safe Scalpel Blade Removal
Removing a used scalpel blade from a reusable handle can present a significant sharps injury risk if the blade is handled directly. Swann Morton and QlickSmart offer a range of dedicated blade removal systems that allow used blades to be removed and contained without unnecessary contact with the cutting edge.
The range includes products suitable for use in clinical environments, during procedures and for professionals who need to transport or dispose of used blades safely.
Blade Removal & Disposal Products
Our range includes:
- Swann Morton Blade Removal Box – designed for the safe removal and containment of Swann Morton scalpel blades. It can hold up to 100 blades and is suitable for both surgery and domiciliary use.
- QlickSmart Blade Disposal System – a single-handed blade removal and containment system designed to remove, contain and dispose of used scalpel blades while reducing the risk of sharps injuries.
- QlickSmart BladeFlask EVO – a puncture-resistant blade removal and disposal system with a capacity of up to 100 blades, compatible with a particularly wide range of scalpel blades and handles.
- QlickSmart Wall/Counter Mounting Bracket – provides a secure fixed position for compatible blade removal systems on a wall, bench or clinical trolley.
- QlickSmart SnapIT – a reusable ampoule-opening device designed to help reduce the risk of injury when opening glass medication ampoules.
The Swann Morton Blade Removal Box is compatible with a wide selection of Swann Morton blades, including No. 6, 10, 10A, 11, E/11, 15, 15C, 15T, 20, 22, 23 and 24, as well as Sabre E/11 and D/15 blades.
Safer Handling of Used Scalpel Blades
Dedicated blade removal systems can help reduce the need to handle contaminated blades directly. Swann Morton`s own blade remover is designed to safely encapsulate a removed blade so that the contained blade can then be placed into an appropriate sharps container.
QlickSmart systems provide additional options for single-handed blade removal and containment. The BladeFlask EVO, for example, is designed as a puncture-resistant sharps container and can accommodate up to 100 blades.
For healthcare professionals carrying out domiciliary or mobile work, appropriate blade removal and containment can be particularly important. A dedicated disposal system can help prevent used blades from becoming loose in clinical bags, vehicles or other working environments.
Choosing the Right Sharps Disposal Product
The best product depends on the type of blade and handle being used, as well as where blade removal takes place.
For standard Swann Morton blades and handles, the Swann Morton Blade Removal Box provides a straightforward option for safe blade removal and containment. For users requiring a dedicated single-handed removal and disposal system, the QlickSmart Blade Disposal System or BladeFlask EVO may be more suitable.
Always check compatibility before purchasing and follow the manufacturer`s instructions for use.
Important Safety Information
Used surgical blades should always be treated as potentially contaminated sharps. Never attempt to remove a scalpel blade using your fingers or by manually pulling it from the handle.
Use an appropriate blade removal system and dispose of removed blades in an approved sharps container in accordance with applicable procedures and regulations. Swann Morton specifically recommends appropriate sharps containment following blade removal.
Blade removal products are intended for responsible adult use. Purchasers must be aged 18 or over. Keep all sharps, blade removal devices and used blades securely away from children and unauthorised users.
