In addition to the traditional Swann-Morton single-use blade remover, we have recently introduced a blade remover unit (BRU) which will hold up to 100 blades and is ideal for use within the GP practice, for a Chiropodist both in their surgery and whilst making domiciliary visits and for Vets whilst out in the field combining simplicity of operation with safety during use.
It can suit those less confident blade users and especially those working in areas where a sharps disposal facility is not immediately available. Trying to extend the life of this device by trying to remove the contaminated blades from them is strongly discouraged as they are designed as a device solely for the removal of blades and not for long term sharps storage.
