...bending and breaking needles offered by Becton, Dickinson & Co. for individual users such as diabetics. For hospitals and doctors' offices, some manufacturers build a tip destroyer into the wall of the carton. Once the needle has been used, the nurse or technician inserts it in a metal slot in the side of the carton and bends it to break off the point...
