Today’s healthcare provider needs to be seen not only as caring for patients, but also as caring for the environment. Reduce Greater use of recycled material As a leading manufacturer of polythene products we recognise our responsibility to operate with due concern for the environment in which we live and work. bpi.healthcare is at the forefront in developing products that offer all of polythene’s benefits – such as its lightweight, high strength and impressive versatility – but in a more sustainable way. Through close contact with governments and industry regulators we are at the forefront of legislative developments. We continually seek to improve our environmental performance by setting objectives and targets combined with clear management programmes and initiatives to minimise our impact on the environment. Here at bpi, we progressively reduce the amount of waste which goes to landfill by reducing the waste arising from our manufacturing operations. We are also able to offer a large number of products made from recycled polythene thanks to our unique relationship to bpi. recycled products. Our sister division within the bpi group is one of the largest recyclers of waste polythene in Europe, recycling some 64,000 tonnes of material every year that might otherwise have been sent to landfill. 4122 5 Lower carbon footprint It’s thanks to this uncompromising environmental commitment that we have developed many products that set new standards in terms of sustainability. One of the most notable is our Green Sack range – some of the toughest, greenest refuse sacks currently available with a carbon footprint up to a third lower than most other 100% recycled polythene refuse sacks. For this very good environmental reason most of our products are produced in the UK. T ULTR UC A LOW CAR INT PROD PR TESTING LABORATORY bpi.recycled products also believes in recycling UK waste at UK facilities to create products with a lower carbon footprint. It ensures the green benefits of using a recycled product aren’t offset by the high product miles of it being made from waste exported overseas, reprocessed and then shipped back to the UK again.

T 0845 017 8653 www.bpihealthcare.com 12 safe management of healthcare waste Segregation of waste at the point of production into suitable colour–coded packaging is vital to good waste management. Regulations —— Infectious waste Health and safety, carriage and waste regulations require that waste is handled, transported and disposed of in a safe and effective manner. The following colour– coded waste segregation guide represents best practice and ensures, at minimum, compliance with current regulations. —— Amalgam waste It is recommended that this national colour–coded system be embraced with immediate effect by new facilities or organisations that produce healthcare waste. Existing facilities and organisations should seek to reorder the new colour– coded supply of waste receptacles as they replace depleted stocks. The following waste types are included in this segregation guide: —— Clinical waste —— Infectious radioactive waste —— Non–infectious radioactive waste —— Sharps contaminated with cytotoxic/ cytostatic products —— Sharps contaminated with other medicinal waste products —— Infectious waste contaminated with cytotoxic/cytostatic products —— Infectious waste contaminated with other medicinal products 13 —— Cytotoxic and cytostatic waste —— Other medicinal waste —— Offensive/hygiene waste —— Domestic waste —— Large equipment, for example mattresses —— Implanted/infectious medical devices —— Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) This is a comprehensive breakdown of all healthcare waste types. Waste producers should choose the most appropriate waste receptacle for the waste generated in a particular area. Colour–coding by waste management option The colour–coded segregation system outlined in this chapter identifies and segregates waste on the basis of waste classification and suitability of treatment/ disposal options. The use of this colour– coding system is not mandatory and is not specified in regulations. Producers may wish to adopt this system to aid the identification and segregation of their waste. By adopting the best practice system, standardisation can be achieved across the UK. Reference is made to the minimum standard of waste treatment/disposal. However, waste may be sent to alternative treatment/disposal methods which operate to an equivalent or higher standard. Any disposal facility should hold the appropriate licence suitable for the waste to be treated or disposed of. Colour–coded segregation charts The chart shown identifies the type of packaging and packaging colour required for each waste stream. Carriage in bulk Bags which have passed the bulk tests should have the following text printed on them: “This bag has PASSED the tests for bulk transport defined in 7.3.2.6.2(c) (RID/ ADR) and 4.3.2.4.2.3 (IMDG Code). Not to be used for the transport of radioactive material.” Bags which have not passed the bulk tests should have the following text printed on them: “This bag has NOT PASSED the tests for bulk transport defined in 7.3.2.6.2(c) (RID/ADR) and 4.3.2.4.2.3 (IMDG Code). Not to be used for the transport of radioactive material.” Sack size tolerances The VCA has issued updated guidance regarding the UN approved sack manufacturing tolerances. The sack dimensions have to be within 2.5% of the approved sack size and within +/- 10% of the approved thickness. The chart assumes that the packaging meets the requirements of the Carriage Regulations (UN compliant) where appropriate. Proper segregation of different types of waste is critical to safe management of healthcare waste and helps control management costs. The use of colour coded receptacles is key to good segregation practice.

Regulations Category ‘A’ The domestic carriage regulations were harmonised with the controls that applied when dangerous goods, articles and substances are carried internationally by road. The highest rated risk. e.g. Ebola virus, Lassa virus, Rabies virus, Hepatitis B cultures, etc. There is a defined list of infectious substances included in this category. They are very rarely found but, when present, are assigned to UN2814 Infectious Substance Affecting Humans. Packing Instruction 620 applies requiring UN performance tested packaging to be used for containment. The general rule for packaging used for containment of UN3373 Diagnostic Specimens/Clinical Specimens requires them to be of good quality and strong enough to withstand the shocks and loadings normally encountered during transportation. Packaging shall be constructed and closed to prevent any loss of contents that might be caused by vibration or by changes in temperature, humidity or pressure. Packing Instruction 650 compliant primary packaging shall be capable of meeting the following criteria: Category ‘B’ Packaging compliance Infectious substances which do not meet the criteria for inclusion in Category ‘A’. They shall be assigned to UN3373 Diagnostic Specimens or Clinical Specimens and are subject to Packing Instruction 650. This will be the case for the analysis. Packing Instruction 650 does not require packaging to meet full UN performance test standard. Specifically, compliance with Packing Instruction 650 consists of three components: —— Absorbent receptacle(s) and the secondary packaging, the absorbent material shall be in quantity sufficient to absorb the entire contents of primary receptacle(s) Whilst the rules to be followed for porting diagnostic specimens internally within NHS Trust sites are not revised by the new regulations, significant changes were introduced, related to the standard of packaging to be used for containment of diagnostic specimens, when transported ON PUBLIC ROADS. The previously used expression ‘Risk Group’ was replaced by new terminology to identify infectious micro-organisms, namely: 27 —— A primary receptacle —— A secondary packaging —— An outer packaging Primary receptacles containing the sample to be laboratory analysed, shall be packed in secondary packaging in such a way that under normal conditions of carriage, they cannot break, be punctured or leak their contents into the secondary packaging. —— Shall be leak proof and capable of withstanding 0.95kPa —— If multiple fragile primary receptacles are placed in a single secondary packaging, they shall be either individually wrapped or separated to prevent contact between them Packaging Instruction 650 compliant secondary packaging shall be leak proof.

ALL PRODUCTS TESTED IN A UKAS APPROVED LABORATORY LATEX FREE MANUFACTURED IN THE UK 31 SUPERIOR PERFORMANCE TESTING LABORATORY 4122 T 0845 017 8653 www.bpihealthcare.com 32 the ultimate in bedding protection The DRITECH 100 range has been manufactured to withstand heavy use in hospitals, nursing homes and residential homes where the problems of bedwetting and the risk of fire from accidents can arise. Cost effective solutions Ease of cleaning and handling DRITECH 100 is flame retardant, and products are designed to protect by completely covering mattresses and pillows. The DRITECH 100 range is extremely easy to maintain. It does not stain or retain odours – it can be wiped down in situ using a damp cloth or sponge. The use of detergents or disinfectants – no matter how strong they are – does not affect the properties of DRITECH 100. This ease of cleaning and handling makes DRITECH 100 cost effective in any environment. DRITECH 100 has been developed specifically for this purpose and has unique qualities that are not found in PVC bedding protection products. One of the main features enables DRITECH 100 to remain soft and comfortable when in use. It even gets softer under body heat, moulding to the shape of the user and mattress – actually providing extra comfort. Products in the range are virtually undetectable in use; they will not crack or harden and split leading to user discomfort. DRITECH 100 does not require the need for plasticisers – whilst these assist in the soft feel of the product they are prone to leach out when in constant contact with urine, perspiration and cleaning disinfectants – in turn causing the product to harden and split leading to user discomfort. The DRITECH 100 range includes draw sheets and pillow protectors, which are secured with either a Velcro fastner or a tuck-in flap. DRITECH 100 is always soft and comfortable, with the added benefit that it prevents soiling, saving the cost of replacement mattresses.
