Safety Waste Cans

Essential wherever solvent soaked rags and wipes are used, these OSHA compliant Safety Waste Cans reduce the risk of fires caused by spontaneous combustion. Sleek steel design with sturdy foot pedal offers effortless, hands-free opening. Unique raised, flow-through base with air ports circulates air and disperses heat. Self-closing cover opens to no more than 60 degrees per FM requirements, and gravity closes to reduce oxygen and prevent fire.

Our Safety Waste Cans are offered in four different sizes to accomodate various requirements. They are available in your choice of Red or Yellow. Different colors can help segregate materials or differentiate departments.
