Defenders Biohazard Step Can

The Rubbermaid Commercial ST12SSPL is a 12 gal stainless steel container designed for infectious waste collection in commercial facilities. Its step-on operation allows hands-free disposal to reduce cross-contamination risks. The square profile fits efficiently against walls or in corners. This unit serves healthcare, laboratory, and institutional environments requiring compliant biohazard containment.

12 gal Capacity for Infectious Waste

The 12 gal volume determines how much regulated medical waste the can holds before requiring liner replacement. This capacity suits medium-traffic areas such as exam rooms, treatment bays, or nursing stations. Facilities generating higher daily volumes will need more frequent servicing or additional units. The square steel body supports the rated capacity without deformation.

Steel Construction Under Continuous Use

The stainless steel body resists corrosion from disinfectants and cleaning agents applied during daily protocols. The step mechanism is built for repeated actuation throughout shifts without binding. The rigid square frame maintains lid alignment over time, preventing gaps that could compromise containment. The material withstands the thermal and chemical demands of facility maintenance routines.

Questions about this item

What does the 12 gal capacity mean for daily infectious-waste collection?

The 12 gal volume lets a busy area hold a full day of regulated waste before the liner needs changing, reducing staff trips to the disposal room.

How does the step-on mechanism control lid movement in practice?

The foot pedal opens the lid hands-free and the damper closes it quietly, limiting aerosol escape and keeping the container sealed between uses.

What floor space and clearance does the square stainless-steel body require?

The square footprint sits flush against walls or cabinets, and the pedal projects only a few inches, so it fits tight corridors and standard breakroom layouts.
