The device is a sharps container, intended for the safe disposal of sharps, not for treating or diagnosing medical conditions.
No
The device is a sharps disposal container, designed for the safe disposal of sharp medical instruments, not for diagnosing medical conditions.
No
The device description clearly states the device is made of Polypropylene resin and is a physical container for sharps disposal, not software.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is for the safe disposal of sharps (needles, scalpels, etc.) by healthcare providers. This is a physical containment and disposal function, not a diagnostic test performed on biological samples.
- Device Description: The description focuses on the physical characteristics of the container (material, shape, closure system) designed for safe handling and disposal of sharps. There is no mention of components or functions related to analyzing biological specimens.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: The document does not mention any of the typical characteristics of an IVD, such as:
- Reagents or assays
- Analysis of biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.)
- Detection or measurement of analytes
- Providing information for diagnosis, monitoring, or treatment decisions
The device is a medical device, specifically a sharps container, intended for the safe management of biohazardous waste. It does not perform any diagnostic function.

Device Description
Our sharps containers are made of Polypropylene resin and coloured using Masterbatch which contains no heavy metals or cadmium.
These materials allow us to produce a very safe, high quality puncture resistant container.
Each container is comprised of a Body (either square or round) and a lid. The lids are a very safe and secure fit.
All containers are vertical entry.
All containers have the maximum filling level line as well as required labelling in accordance with current legislation.
These containers are equipped with a permanent closure system, that is the final method of closure. Once the container is closed permanently it is locked closed. It can not manually re-open. This is a very safe method of preventing injury.
Once the container is full it is locked and then disposed of. It is safe for anyone coming into contact with the container.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)
Non clinical tests: The summary data derived from mechanical tests are as follows:
-
Impact Resistance:
PREDICATE DEVICE: Sharps-Tainer - Pass
AP MEDICAL PBS - No damage after dropping from 1 mt
PREDICATE DEVICE: The sharps collection and disposal system - Pass
AP MEDICAL CS - NURSY - No damage after dropping from 1 mt -
Puncture Resistance (base, sides, closure, top):
PREDICATE DEVICE: Sharps-Tainer - Pass
AP MEDICAL PBS - Average > 18 N, min >12.5 N
PREDICATE DEVICE: The sharps collection and disposal system - Pass
AP MEDICAL CS - NURSY - Average > 18 N, min >12.5 N -
Leak Resistance (sides and bottom):
PREDICATE DEVICE: Sharps-Tainer - Pass
AP MEDICAL PBS - The containers are leak proof on sides and bottom
PREDICATE DEVICE: The sharps collection and disposal system - Pass

Intended use:
These containers are intended for use by healthcare providers such as hospitals, laboratories, medical clinics, veterinary clinics and other facilities. The containers are designed and used for the safe collection and disposal of sharps such as needles, lancets and other sharp instruments.
They were designed in collaboration with the people from infectious control from different countries in order to satisfy in the best way the hospital's needs as well as the highest security standards.
Furthermore, three different lines offers to our customers and end users to choose the lid closure and design which they prefer:
PBS line - round shape container with a very simple definitive closure
CS line - square shape container with turning lid for definitive closure
Nursy line - square shape container with a high shock resistance
All our containers once full must be disposed.

Dear Mr. Grava:
We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration.
If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.

Page 2 - Mr. Grava
Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies, You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820); and if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.
This letter will allow you to begin marketing your device as described in your Section 510(k) premarket notification. The FDA finding of substantial equivalence of your device to a legally marketed predicate device results in a classification for your device and thus, permits your device to proceed to the market.
