Description
The Owen Mumford Unifine SafeControl is an active safety pen needle built to give healthcare professionals full dose control with a visible needle, then cover that needle after use to help prevent needlestick injuries. A manual push tab activates the safety guard with one hand, and a dual indicator confirms activation both visually and audibly.
- Visible Needle Control – The needle stays visible during injection using conventional pen needle technique, supporting precise, complete dosing.
- One Handed Safety – The push tab fires the safety guard with one hand immediately after the injection.
- Dual Confirmation – Visual and audible signals confirm the safety feature has activated, and a green cap keeps the needle sterile before use.
About This Unifine SafeControl Safety Pen Needles
Safety pen needles fail professionally when they trade dose confidence for sharps protection, and clinicians stop trusting them. SafeControl was evaluated by 106 healthcare professionals, and 92 percent said they felt completely confident the full medication dose was delivered. Seventy five percent said it gave the right balance of safety and control during injections, and most said they would choose it given the choice.
The safety guard covers the needle after use, addressing the needlestick risk that follows the injection rather than preceding it. The green cap is recyclable where local collection is available. This listing is the 5mm x 30G size, identified by its white body with green cap in the manufacturer range.

Why Choose This Safety Pen Needles
Clinical settings need sharps protection that clinicians will actually activate, in the second after the dose, with the hand that is free. SafeControl puts the activation on a one handed tab and confirms it twice, which is why its evaluation numbers hold up.
- Confident Dosing – Ninety two percent of evaluating professionals were completely confident the full dose was delivered.
- Fewer Needlesticks – A guard that deploys with one hand right after use closes the highest risk moment in pen injection.
- Active, Visible Design – Visible needle control plus active shielding is a differentiator over passive safety needles that hide the dose.
