What is RMW? Regulated medical waste (RMW), also known as âbiohazardousâ waste or 'infectious medicalâ waste, is the portion of the waste stream that may be contaminated by blood, body fluids or other potentially infectious materials, thus posing a significant risk of transmitting infection.
Regulated Medical Waste Packaging. Although RMW is by definition an infectious substance, it does not fall under the packaging requirements for infectious substances (49 CFR 173.196) because of an exception found in 49 CFR 173.134 (see 173.134(c), exceptions for regulated medical waste).
