33 Gallon Red Infectious Waste Liners - LLDPE Biohazard Bags by LK Packaging
These 33 gallon red infectious waste liners from LK Packaging deliver reliable containment for medical waste disposal operations. Constructed from linear low density polyethylene (LLDPE), these biohazard bags offer superior tear and puncture resistance compared to standard low density liners. Star-sealed bottoms prevent leakage while the bright red color with prominent biohazard symbols ensures proper identification throughout the waste stream.
Specs: 33 gallon capacity | Linear Low Density Polyethylene | Star-sealed bottom | Biohazard symbol (English/Spanish) | Meets ASTM D1922 (480g tear) & ASTM D1709 (165g impact)
Applications
These infectious waste liners serve critical containment roles across healthcare and regulated industries. Hospitals and medical clinics use them for sharps containers, contaminated materials, and biohazardous waste streams. Laboratories rely on the puncture-resistant LLDPE construction for safe disposal of biological samples and contaminated equipment. Veterinary practices, dental offices, and long-term care facilities stock these liners to maintain compliance with infectious waste regulations. Tattoo parlors, funeral homes, and first responder units also require red biohazard bags for proper disposal protocols.

- High Visibility: Bright red color ensures immediate identification as infectious waste throughout handling and transport
Common Questions
Q: What makes LLDPE liners stronger than standard poly bags?
A: Linear low density polyethylene has a more linear molecular structure than LDPE, giving it higher tensile strength, better puncture resistance, and greater stretch before tearing. This matters for infectious waste that may contain sharps or irregular objects.
Q: Do these bags meet DOT requirements for infectious waste transport?
A: These liners meet federal and state regulations for tear and impact resistance. For DOT transport of regulated medical waste, verify your specific state requirements and ensure proper secondary containment is used.
Q: What size containers do 33 gallon liners fit?
A: 33 gallon liners fit standard 30-35 gallon commercial trash cans and infectious waste containers. The extra capacity provides overhang for secure closure and tying.
