The Rectangular Thru-Counter Waste Chute from Greeno Organization is the clean, permanent solution for chairside sharps and hazardous waste disposal. Mounted directly through your countertop, it lets clinical staff drop used instruments, sharps, and contaminated materials straight into a contained waste bag below — without touching a lid, reaching across the operatory, or leaving the patient's side. The result is a faster, safer, and more hygienic workflow that keeps your team compliant and your countertops clear.
Key Benefits:
-
Chairside Access: Flush-mounted through the counter for immediate, one-motion disposal without stepping away from the patient
-
Biohazard Lid Included: Hinged biohazard-labeled lid keeps the chute sealed between uses, reducing airborne contamination risk
-
Bag Holder Included: Integrated bag holder below the counter keeps waste bags open, positioned, and ready — no fumbling or spills
-
Rectangular Profile: 5-3/4" x 13-3/4" opening accommodates a wide range of instruments, packaging, and waste materials
-
Permanent Installation: Built-in design eliminates countertop clutter and the need for freestanding waste containers
-
Infection Control Compliant: Supports OSHA and CDC guidelines for safe sharps and hazardous waste handling

How It Works:
-
Install through countertop: Cut a rectangular opening in your countertop to match the chute dimensions and drop the unit in place
-
Attach bag holder below: Secure the bag holder assembly underneath the counter and load a compatible waste bag
-
Use chairside: Lift the hinged biohazard lid and drop waste directly into the chute — lid closes automatically
-
Change bags as needed: Access the bag holder from below the counter for quick, contained bag changes
Installation Considerations:
- Requires a rectangular cutout in the countertop matching the chute's outer dimensions (5-3/4" x 13-3/4")
- Adequate clearance needed below the counter for the bag holder and waste bag
- Best installed during operatory build-out or renovation, but can be retrofitted into existing counters
- Consult your dental equipment installer or contractor for countertop cutting and mounting
Infection Control & Compliance:
-
OSHA Bloodborne Pathogens Standard: Supports compliant sharps and regulated medical waste handling by minimizing contact and exposure
-
CDC Guidelines: Enclosed disposal pathway reduces splash, splatter, and airborne contamination risk
-
Biohazard Labeling: Lid is clearly marked to communicate hazard status to all clinical staff
-
Contained Waste Stream: Bag holder keeps waste fully enclosed below the counter until bag removal
