New Product... SoundGard Biohazard  Waste Cans...

biohazard waste can use
Biohazard Waste Containers meet OSHA  (Occupational Safety and Health Administration) 29 CFR 1910.1030 for the segregation of infectious waste (not to be used for sharps). The sturdy steel cans feature leakproof construction with foot-operated, self-closing lid.

Simple, foot pedal operation opens the container cover automatically to safely dispose of biohazard waste. Upon release of pedal, the can cover closes quickly to reduce the risk of contamination. A biohazard bag is held securely around the circumference of the can top. The new SoundGard lid option offers a quiet close for those environments where it is desirable to lessen disruptive noise. The SoundGard Waste Cans come in 6-gallon and 10-gallon sizes.

 Re-Manufactured 275-gallon
 & 330-gallon Totes....
                      tote remanufactured 
Here at Maxi Container, we strive to reuse our products as much as possible. For example, we take used 275-gallon and 330-gallon IBC's and reuse their salvageable cages. Then we put in a new HDPE (High Density Polyethylene) food grade plastic bottle, turning them into a re-manufactured IBC. By reusing cages we can save our customers money and help the environment at the same time. Re-manufacturing IBC's helps keep more items out of landfills and helps reduce greenhouse gases. A re-manufactured IBC can be used for either food or regulated (hazardous) products. The IBC's unique modular design allows customers to choose the valves that they require. We stock both the 275-gallon and the 330-gallon IBC with either a standard NPT (National Pipe Thread) or  Cam-Lock ball valve. Maxi offers special custom programs for customers who recycle their IBC's with us. By recycling your used IBC's with Maxi you will  save money and help the environment too.

For more information on re-manufactured 275-gallon & 330-gallon IBC's or about how Maxi can design a recycling program perfect for your company's needs, please call Bob at 313-891-3880 or email him.
