Yellow & Black Offensive Waste Bags

Business Waste supplies yellow-and-black tiger bags and arranges collections for businesses producing non-infectious offensive healthcare waste.

These bags are used for suitable waste such as incontinence products, nappies, protective clothing and dressings that contain body fluids but are not infectious and do not contain medicines or hazardous chemicals.

Tell us what waste you produce, approximately how much there is and how often it needs to be collected. We’ll confirm the appropriate bags, arrange delivery and set up a one-off or scheduled collection.

Tiger clinical waste bags

Keeping offensive waste separate prevents it from contaminating infectious or other healthcare waste streams and ensures it follows the correct collection and disposal route.

Use yellow and black clinical waste bags to safely store:

  • Incontinence pads and nappies
  • Suitable colostomy waste
  • Non-infectious wipes and dressings
  • Masks, gloves and protective clothing contaminated with body fluids

Yellow-and-black waste bags are supplied without separate rental or delivery charges as part of the agreed collection service.

One-off collections can suit temporary treatment activity, care settings with very low waste volumes, short-term projects or businesses that only produce offensive waste occasionally. Regular collections are available where bags fill continuously.

If your site also produces infectious waste, sharps or other healthcare waste streams, these can be arranged alongside your offensive waste collection through the same Business Waste account.

Collection Frequency:
One-off, daily, weekly, fortnightly, or ad hoc collection
Capacity:
Height – 26cm, Width – 22cm
Waste Type:
  • Clinical Waste

When should I use a yellow-and-black tiger bag?

Healthcare offensive waste must be correctly classified and kept separate from clinical waste before collection. Keeping offensive waste separate ensures it can follow the disposal or recovery route specified for that waste stream.

Depending on the collection and facility, segregated offensive waste may be sent to energy-from-waste or another permitted disposal route.

Other clinical waste bags and containers

If you’re comparing clinical waste bin colours, remember that colour coding identifies different waste streams and does not mean every stream uses a soft bag. In England, yellow-and-black tiger bags identify the offensive/non-infectious stream.

Packaging and colour-coding requirements can vary across the UK, so we’ll confirm the appropriate bag or container for your site. Colours can include:

Arrange offensive waste bag delivery and collection

Tell us what offensive waste your organisation produces, approximately how much there is and your postcode. We’ll confirm whether yellow-and-black tiger bags are suitable and arrange delivery and collection.

One-off and scheduled collections are available depending on how regularly the waste arises. Other clinical waste streams can also be arranged through the same Business Waste account, where required.
