A clinical waste container (100) being associated, in an upright operating orientation of the clinical waste container (100), with an upwards axial direction (A), an out-wards radial direction (R) and an angular direction (V), the clinical waste container (100) comprising
- a lower basket part (110), having an upper basket opening (111);
- an upper lid part (120), arranged to be fastened to said basket part (110) so as to cover said basket opening (111), the lid part (120) comprising a cylindrical part (121) having an upper lid opening (122) arranged to receive clinical waste through said lid opening (122) into said basket part (110);
- and
- a lid cap part (130), arranged to be fastened to said lid part (120) so as to cover said lid opening (122), the lid cap part (130) comprising a cylindrical part (131) having a closed upper end (132) and an inner dimension being larger than an outer dimension of said cylindrical part (121) of the lid part (120), the cylindrical part (131) of the lid cap part (130) being arranged to be slid onto the cylindrical part (121) of the lid part (120) so that the lid cap part (130) as a result covers the lid opening (122),
- wherein the cylindrical part (131) of the lid cap part (130) comprises inner snap-lock means (133) arranged to engage with outer snap-lock means (123) arranged on the cylindrical part (121) of the lid part (120) so as to fasten the lid cap part (130) on the lid part (120) by the material of at least the lid cap part (130) deforming elastically into a snap-fit lock,
- wherein:
- the inner snap-lock means (133) comprises several separated elongated protrusions (133a, 133b), running in the angular direction (V) in relation to the lid cap part (130) and together defining a broken circle,
- the outer snap-lock means (123) comprises an elongated recess (123a, 123b), running in the angular direction (V) in relation to the lid part (120) and being arranged to, by at least the material of the lid cap part (130) elastically deforming, engage with said protrusions (133a, 133b) by said protrusions (133a, 133b) protruding into said recess (123a, 123b) along a respective angular (V) extension of said protrusions (133a, 133b) and said recess (123a, 123b), respectively, so as to form a first snap-fit lock, in turn fastening the lid cap part (130) to the lid part (120),
- the lid part (120) comprises at a lower end (124) of its cylindrical part (121) a bend (125) at which the cylindrical part (121) of the lid part (120) changes direction at least 60° as seen in a cross-section including a center axially (A) extending axis of the cylindrical part (121) of the lid part (120), the bend (125) having an inner radius of curvature (R1) of at the most 5 mm and an outer radius of curvature (R2) of at the most 5 mm,
- the material thickness of the lid part (120) is at least 25% thicker locally at said bend (125) as compared to a material thickness adjacent to the bend (125) in said cylindrical part (121) of the lid part (120), and
- the lid part (120) and the lid cap part (130) are made from a plastic material comprising at least 30% by volume wooden fibers.
