Plastic waste is a burden for any laboratory – expensive and time-consuming to dispose of, and with potentially severe ecological impact. For example, the pipette-tip racks commonly used in life science laboratories are made from petroleum-derived PPE, and have substantial physical as well as environmental footprints. Exploring greener tip racking solutions can be both efficient and economical.
Greener packaging:
- Weighs less, so costs less to ship
- Occupies less space, during storage or as lab waste
- Reduces weight-based biohazard incineration costs
- Can efficiently be recycled into equivalent products (e.g., PET easily recycles into water bottles, etc.)
