Medical Grade Quality: Designed for single-use in medical settings, it reduces the risk of cross-infection. Its robust, puncture-resistant structure ensures safe handling, while its suitability for sterilization allows inclusion in medical procedure packs.
Environmental Impact
The EcoAid Gallipot can be disposed of as general or recyclable waste and is suitable for incineration, offering a lower CO₂ emission footprint compared to plastic alternatives. Its production in an ISO 9001:2015 certified facility and compliance with ASTM D6868 and EN13432 standards underscore its high quality and environmental credentials.

With a clean-edge finish, the gallipot provides comfort and a tidy appearance. It is not intended for use with alcohol-based medications but excels in dispensing and holding other medications or fluids in hospitals and primary care settings. Disposal should align with local waste management protocols, with options for composting or recycling if not clinically contaminated.
