HaseMed Cardboard Kidney Dishes

Overview

HaseMed Cardboard Kidney Dishes are the eco-friendly single-use answer to a fixture of daily clinical practice. Moulded from sturdy paper pulp, each dish holds its shape under dressings, irrigation fluids and small instruments, then goes straight into the paper or compost stream after use. No reprocessing, no plastic waste, no compromise on hygiene at the point of care.

Highlights & Benefits

• Genuinely disposable: Designed for one-time use to eliminate reprocessing cycles and the cross-contamination risk that comes with them.
• Moulded cardboard pulp: A rigid, form-stable shell that handles swabs, dressings and fluids without collapsing or leaking during short procedures.
• Recyclable and compostable: Plastic-free construction drops into existing paper recycling or organic waste streams, supporting sustainability targets on hospital wards.
• Lightweight ergonomics: The classic reniform shape sits securely against the body and pours cleanly, reducing splashes during wound care and rinsing.
• Neutral natural finish: Unbleached grey-beige pulp looks calm and professional on trolleys, trays and bedside tables.
• Bulk-pack efficiency: Supplied in a 50-piece carton so wards, GP practices and nursing homes can keep a full shelf without tying up storage space.

Why choose cardboard over reusable dishes?

Stainless steel and rigid plastic kidney dishes have to be collected, washed, disinfected and dried between patients — a workflow that costs staff minutes and consumes water, detergent and energy on every cycle. Disposable pulp dishes remove that entire loop. Used once, then recycled or composted, they keep barrier hygiene simple while lowering the environmental footprint of routine procedures. They also travel well: for home visits, ambulances and mobile care, a stack of cardboard dishes weighs almost nothing and never needs to come back to base for reprocessing.

Use Cases

• Hospital wards: Bedside collection of dressings, swabs, ampoules and small sharps containers before disposal.
• Clinics and emergency departments: Catching irrigation fluid, blood or exudate during short treatments where a clean dish is needed on demand.
• Nursing and care homes: Hygienic single-use support for daily rounds, wound checks and personal care routines.
• GP surgeries and outpatient clinics: Holding sample tubes, cannula caps, cotton balls and other small consumables during minor procedures.
• Dental and podiatry practices: A tidy receptacle for used instruments and rinse water between steps of treatment.
• Home care and mobile services: A clean, disposable surface at every visit with nothing to carry back for cleaning.
• Veterinary clinics: Low-cost reniform dishes for examinations, dressing changes and minor interventions on small animals.

Application

Pull a dish from the box, place it on the trolley or bedside and use it immediately at the point of care. After use, empty the contents into the appropriate clinical waste stream and dispose of the dish itself with paper or organic waste according to your facility's waste policy.

• Preparation: Don gloves, open the carton and position the dish within reach of the work area.
• Use: Collect dressings, swabs, fluids or small instruments directly into the dish throughout the procedure.
• Disposal: Empty any clinical contents into the correct waste container, then place the empty dish in paper recycling or compost according to local guidelines.

Important Notes

For single use only — do not reprocess or attempt to reuse. Not intended for long-term contact with strongly caustic, solvent-based or highly aggressive liquids. Keep the carton dry and closed before use; avoid storage in humid environments that could soften the pulp. Always follow your facility's hygiene, infection-control and waste-segregation protocols when selecting a disposable receptacle for a given procedure.
