What makes this product stand out?

The NXT Hg5 container is engineered for reliable, high-volume amalgam waste collection with integrated features that simplify disposal and recycling workflows. The included recycle kit components help ensure proper packaging for downstream processing and reclamation.

Key advantages include

  • High-capacity design supports extended waste capture before replacement
  • Clear, compliant labeling assists regulatory adherence
  • Integrated recycle kit helps streamline proper packaging and shipping
  • Durable construction resists leaks and supports safe handling
  • Dental-specific design fits common operatory and central collection workflows

What is this product made of?

The NXT Hg5 container is made from robust, chemical-resistant plastics engineered to safely contain heavy metal and amalgam particulate. The container’s integrity matters because secure containment protects staff, patients, and the environment from exposure risks while maintaining compliance with waste regulations.

At-a-glance comparison:

  • Dedicated amalgam collection container vs general waste container: Designed to meet waste standards and support reclamation programs.
  • High-capacity vs low-capacity containers: Larger containers reduce replacement frequency and support busier practices.

For dental teams, this construction supports predictable, safe amalgam handling and helps reduce disruptions during busy clinical workflows.

What is it used for?

The NXT Hg5 collection container with recycle kit is used to capture and store amalgam waste from chairside traps, screens, and vacuum lines during routine dental care. Proper capture helps prevent mercury and heavy metal discharge into wastewater and supports recycling programs.

Common applications include:

  • Collecting amalgam particulate from chairside trap rinses
  • Capturing amalgam debris from vacuum and suction systems
  • Supporting practice compliance with dental wastewater regulations
  • Preparing waste for transport to certified recycling or reclamation facilities
  • Reducing environmental impact of dental amalgam disposal
