Major Concerns
1. The lack of safety and the inconvenience associated with used
needle/syringe disposal have always created problems. Systems or
containers that accept whole syringes actually encourage needle sticks
and are dangerous! Accidental needle-sticks are a major problem
that affect "innocents" - innocents include family members, friends, the
community, waste collectors, landfill operators and above all......the
general public.
2. Disabling the used needle only solves part of the problem. Both the
needle and the syringe barrel must be destroyed! The syringe
barrel must not remain useable - there should be no possibility of
re-use!
Remedy
The VOYAGER answers these problems providing a safe, portable, convenient
and money-saving disposal unit for all sizes of insulin type diabetic
syringes. Use at home or while traveling.
Simply
insert the used needle/syringe into the top of the container until it
stops. Twist the outside of the maroon colored top in the direction of
the arrows. The used needle and a small portion of the syringe barrel
are safely separated and contained within the VOYAGER. The remainder of
the syringe barrel is safely destroyed and no longer useable preventing
harmful accidental needle sticks.
