ZeoMed biohazard spill kits

The latest ZeoMed spill kits are designed to comply with Department of Health regulations in the handling of bloodborne pathogens in the workplace. Each kit is designed to provide a hygienic handling and disposal system for spills commonly encountered in workplaces and public and recreational areas, including blood, vomit and bodily fluids that pose health hazards including HIV and hepatitis.

ZeoMed kits — which can be hung next to fire extinguishers or placed in first aid kits for quick recognition — include protection required by Safe Work Australia. Contents of the kits include absorbent powder, absorbent cleaning cloths, sealing waste disposal bags or sealing bulk containers, face masks, splash goggles, aprons, scoops, scrapers, bright yellow waste warning materials and instruction sheets.

Customised kits can also be produced to suit the particular needs of individual sites. The main kits include the Body Fluid Spill Kit, designed for in-field use with portable first aid kits for quick access by employees. The Biohazard Spill Kit is suitable for corporate, hospitality and public domains, located near first aid stations or cleaning trolleys.

Cytotoxic Body Fluid Spill Kits provide additional protection for clean-ups of body fluids from patients who have been treated with cytotoxic drugs. The Laboratory Spill Kit is configured for laboratory and similar applications where spills may include body fluid or other liquids, such as chemicals. The Multipurpose Spill Kit is suitable for venues such as supermarkets, variety stores, shopping centres, restaurants, and hospitality and transport terminals where staff or the public may be at risk from biohazard and chemical hazards as well as slip and fall hazards. The Sharps Kit is designed for safely disposing of needles and syringes.
