To help organisations provide better worker and patient safety, we at HMD have launched single-use needles under our Unolok brand to curb the cross-contamination threat. <br>As the name suggests, these needles can only be used once, after which they need to be disposed of.

Precautions to Follow Before Using our Unolok Single-Use needle
It’s essential to check the seal of our needle packs for any tampering before using the needle on a patient. If you do find the seal to be broken, dispose of the needle and open a new one. Also, don’t pierce the needle to the hard plastic, as it can block the needle’s orifice.
Moreover, remember to store the needle in a pest-free and dry space, preferably one that isn’t exposed to excessive heat. To avoid rusting or corrosion, make sure to keep the needles away from corrosive/acidic fumes.
