Why Green?

An estimated 4,000,000 lbs of plastic from pipette tip racks is deposited each year in landfills around the world. That is just one year! Imagine how much plastic is wasted over your lifetime. Plastic does not degrade so even though they are buried in a landfill, they are not going anywhere.

Light Labs realizes that there is a need within the scientific community for earth friendly products that will reduce the impact that science has on the environment. Refilling tip racks is a simple way to create less waste. But how much waste is generated in simply packaging products? Many pipette tip reload systems generate substantial waste in their packaging, tip wafers, and bases.

The Earth belongs to everybody. If we don’t take care of it, who will?
