TrailMed 0.1L Ultra-Compact Trail Sharps Container

£2.50

Safety on the Move | One-Way Guard Technology

The lightest, safest way to manage medical sharps on the trail.

Whether you are a trail runner managing diabetes, a hiker navigating remote terrain, or a medic providing event cover, the TrailMed 0.1L Trail Sharps Container is designed for your pack. At just 16.5cm long, this pocket-sized tube offers professional-grade clinical waste management in a form factor that fits into a running vest, hip belt, or first aid kit.

Why Choose the TrailMed Sharps Tube? Unlike standard portable bins, our container features a unique integrated one-way guard. This allows you to push needles, IV catheters, and lancets effortlessly into the container while preventing them from ever falling back out—even if the lid is open. It is the ultimate peace of mind for active users in motion.

Key Features

  • Active-Safety Guard: Innovative neck design allows for easy insertion but prevents sharps from falling out during movement.

  • Ultra-Portable: Slim, 32mm diameter fits perfectly in backpack side pockets, MOLLE webbing, or emergency medical kits.

  • Puncture Resistant: Built from high-quality, heavy-duty Polypropylene (PP) to withstand the rigours of the outdoors.

  • Secure Dual-Lock System: Features an intermediate closure for use on the go and a permanent final seal for safe disposal.

  • Integrated Needle Notch: Built-in notches in the lid for easy, hands-free needle removal.

  • Translucent Body: Easily monitor fill levels to ensure you never overfill.

Why we love it:

"We designed this because standard sharps bins are too bulky for a running vest. Our one-way guard is a game-changer—it means if you drop your kit or trip on a technical trail, your used sharps stay exactly where they belong: locked away."

Introductory Price: Only £2.50 – Secure your safety on the trails today.

Guide to Safe Sharps Management

Using a portable sharps container correctly is essential for your safety and the safety of others. Follow these best practices to ensure your TrailMed container performs at its best.

How to Use

  1. Preparation: Ensure the lid is clicked into the "Intermediate" open position before starting your activity.

  2. Insertion: Insert the needle or lancet through the One-Way Guard. You will feel a slight resistance; push firmly until the sharp is fully inside the chamber.

  3. One-Handed Operation: The slim design allows you to hold the tube and insert the sharp with a single hand, minimising the risk of a "needlestick" injury to your other hand.

  4. Temporary Closure: Between uses, click the snap-tight lid shut. The One-Way Guard provides backup protection, but the lid prevents fluid leakage.

  5. Final Disposal: Once the container reaches the "Full" line (approx. 75% capacity), press the lid down firmly until it clicks into the Permanent Lock position. It cannot be reopened once locked.

Best Practices & Safety Protocols

  • The "Point-of-Use" Rule: Always keep your sharps container within arm’s reach when using a needle. Never carry an exposed sharp across a distance to get to the bin.

  • Check Capacity Regularly: Never force a sharp into a full container. If the bin is 3/4 full, it is time to transition to a new one.

  • No "Recapping": Avoid the temptation to put the plastic cap back on a needle before disposal. Go straight from the injection site to the TrailMed container.

  • Clear the Opening: If a needle becomes lodged in the opening, do not use your fingers to clear it. Use forceps or a sturdy tool to safely manoeuvre it into the bin.

  • Responsible Disposal: Once permanently sealed, dispose of the unit at an authorised biohazard collection point or your local pharmacy. Do not place in general waste or recycling.
