Job description

Our story began with a passionate idea that we could change the world... And to be honest we’ve never stopped believing that... In 1986 it was a simple concept that microbiology teamed with innovation and clinical contribution could eliminate an issue that was profoundly impacting the healthcare industry HIV acquired through needle-stick injuries.

In Australia we lived out our dream. Investing years into R&D to create the safest containment system in the world and taking on the industry status quo to petition for higher standards in sharps protection we witnessed an 80 percent reduction in disposal-related needlestick injuries nationwide. And then we kept going...
