Discreet sanitary waste bins for a more inclusive men's washroom space
Wilson Washroom Services are installing male incontinence bins in commercial washrooms across Scotland now. Call us to book your free site survey and make your workplace more accessible.
By offering dedicated Men’s Health Hygiene Units, we help businesses support the dignity and wellbeing of all staff and visitors, especially those managing health issues like incontinence or post-surgery recovery.
What is needed for a washroom to be sympathetic?
With an aging and more active population there are several conditions that require a hygiene disposal service in at least one male toilet cubicle.
- Hook on the door – To hang clothing, handbags and luggage while changing stoma bags. This provides more space in the cubicle.
- Shelf space – To enable ostomates to spread out their items easily and avoid having to use unsanitary surfaces.
- Mirror – To enable users to see their stoma while changing their appliances.
- Disposal bin in every cubicle – To avoid embarrassment from men having to dispose of their stoma bag in public view.

Your Questions Answered: Men's Hygiene Disposal
We have answered some common questions people ask about male incontinence disposal and hygiene waste removal.
Please also visit our Frequently Asked Questions page for more information on our products and services.
Can I change my stoma bag myself?
Yes, you can change your stoma bag yourself but you need some equipment to do it, such as a fresh bag and hygienic wipes.
Salts Healthcare provides advice on changing your stoma bag but remember to contact your healthcare professional if you have any questions.
How do I dispose of used sanitary products?
Recent legal, health and environmental information has shown how used sanitary products that were flushed down the toilet cause pollution and sewer blockages.
Overflowing, or unavailable, bins in public toilets further exacerbates the problem. The best option is to use a sanitary bin which is specifically designed for the disposal of used sanitary products; this is also required by law for UK businesses under the Workplace (Health, Safety and Welfare) Regulations 1992.
At home, you should put your used sanitary products in the general waste bin. Never flush them down the toilet.
What causes male incontinence?
Male incontinence can affect you at any age and may stem from health conditions including nerve/muscle damage or weakness, diabetes or an enlarged prostate. Your healthcare professional can provide advice and support if you are affected by urinary incontinence.
We have an informative blog on incontinence with some helpful links and the services we provide to support those affected by the condition. Wider awareness of this issue is helping to reduce stigma and also allows workplaces across leisure, commercial and educational settings, hospitality venues and retail outlets to provide facilities for their staff and visitors.
Are men's incontinence pads free?
There are some cases where you may be entitled to free incontinence pads on the NHS. Speak to your GP for a referral.
You could also do an online search for ‘free male sanitary pads’ or ‘free incontinence pads’ – some companies offer free trials of their products and this is a good way to find a product that suits your needs.
How should a man look after himself?
It’s vital to look after your mental as well as your physical health.
The age-old edict of keeping a stiff upper lip is thankfully giving way to honest conversations about the pressures of everyday life and work, and how self-care is an important aspect of health overall.
