What color is the container designated for the disposal of sharp objects?

The designated color for the disposal of sharp objects is red. This color coding is universally recognized in healthcare settings to signify biohazard or potentially hazardous waste. Red containers are specifically designed to ensure the safe disposal of sharp items, such as needles, syringes, and broken glass, which pose a risk of injury or infection. Using red containers helps to prevent accidental needle-stick injuries and ensures that these items are disposed of in a manner that complies with health and safety regulations.
