Eppendorf epT.I.P.S.® BioBased Reloads in 'Biopur' grade innovate with cutting edge eco-friendly design. The tips are made from 90% plant-based material in a reloadable format. They ensure precision and purity, and are ideal for sensitive applications prioritizing environmental responsibility.
- Improve the laboratory carbon footprint with epT.I.P.S.® BioBased Biopur® in the new Eppendorf Reloads
- Produced from recycled feedstock in second generation, derived solely from waste and residue streams from vegetable oil production
- Significantly reduce laboratory waste volume by using Reloads instead of disposable racks
- Pipette tips with ACT (Accountability, Consistency, and Transparency) certification
- Premium material, quality, and purity certified
- Excellent sample integrity as no slip agents, plasticizers, and biocides are used
- General quality certificates in compliance with standards and general Eppendorf quality items
- Available in volumes from 10 to 1,250 µl Long in Reloads for use with epT.I.P.S.® Box 2.0
- Also available as ep Dualfilter T.I.P.S.® BioBased PCR clean and sterile and ep Dualfilter T.I.P.S.® SealMax® BioBased Biopur®
- ACT® labeled by non-profit My Green Lab® to help make an informed choice regarding sustainability
The Eppendorf epT.I.P.S.® BioBased in volumes up to 1,250µl open up new doors to make laboratory work significantly more sustainable without jeopardizing experimental results. By using a second-generation bio-based polymer made from at least 90 % renewable resources (e.g. waste and residues from vegetable oil refining or waste cooking oil), the product-related carbon footprint of these pipette tips and filter pipette tips was significantly reduced. "General Quality Certificates" on compliance with standards and general quality requirements, product-specific and lot-specific purity certificates, as well as "ACT Certificates" (the independent environmental impact factor certification by My Green Lab) attest the well-known premium product quality expected from Eppendorf pipette tips, combined with a sustainability factor that will clearly be visible in the laboratory carbon footprint with continuous use of these pipette and filter pipette tips.
Together with the use of more sustainable starting material for the pipette tips, these bio-based tips come in a Reload variant which meets the same purity and sterility requirements as conventional disposable racks. This Reload variant saves up to 54% fossil-based plastic compared to conventional racks and significantly reduces the volume of laboratory waste. The new Reloads fit perfectly into the well-known epT.I.P.S.® Box 2.0.
Thus both aspects – bio-based raw material for the pipette tips and significantly reduced use of plastic for the Reloads – contribute to an improved laboratory carbon footprint and to laboratory waste reduction.
