The Rubbermaid Commercial Step-On Stainless Steel Trash Can creates hands-free sanitary waste management. These trash cans are ideal for areas where medical waste originates, including patient rooms, lab procedure rooms, and emergency rooms. The garbage can features tough stainless steel construction and a quiet heavy-duty pedal for hands-free sanitary use. These receptacles offer a slow-close integrated lid damper to help keep odors and bacteria from escaping. They assist in complying with OSHA regulation; 29 CFR 1910.1030 "Occupational Exposure to Bloodborne Pathogens."
