Biohazard Step Can 24 gal

This steel step can is built for biohazard waste collection in commercial and healthcare settings. A foot-operated kick bar enables hands-free opening while a self-closing lid with a full piano hinge contains odour and prevents the lid from flipping back. Retainer bands keep liner bags secure and hidden.

Facilities needing hands-free infectious waste

Suited for environments where staff must dispose of contaminated materials without touching the receptacle. The design supports infection-control protocols by keeping the lid closed and liners out of sight. Facilities that require colour-coded waste streams or automated sensor operation should consider alternative solutions.

Simple floor placement with nylon glides

The unit arrives assembled and ready to position; nylon glides protect hard floors during placement and occasional moves. No tools or fasteners are required for initial use. The most common issue is liner bags slipping if retainer bands are not engaged properly, so confirm they are seated before adding waste.

Questions about this item

What liner bag size fits the 24 gal capacity of this step can?

Use standard 24-gallon liner bags; the built-in retainer bands hold them securely and keep the bag edges hidden.

Does the self-closing lid with piano hinge stay open on its own when I need both hands?

No, the full piano hinge closes the lid automatically after each use; it does not have a stay-open position.

How can I confirm the kick bar is operating correctly after assembly?

Press the kick bar with your foot — the lid should open smoothly, then close fully and quietly on its own when you release it.
