Eco-Friendly, Sustainable Sample Storage Consumables

Hits:49   Date: 1/17/2025
Azenta Life Sciences announce, as part of their commitment to sustainable science, that they are increasing the use of recycled polypropylene in their FluidX sample storage consumables range.


To support this initiative, from January 2025, all SBS tube rack bases will be manufactured with up to 90% recycled polypropylene, sourced from repurposed material generated during the production of FluidX sample storage tubes. This recycled material meets the same stringent quality standards as existing racks, ensuring reliable and consistent performance.


Global Product Manager Alexis MacLeod commented, “This shift to recycled polypropylene aligns with Azenta’s Environmental and Social Governance (ESG) commitments, creating a more environmentally sustainable product. By reducing waste and decreasing reliance on virgin polypropylene, we continue to deliver the high-quality solutions you would expect from Azenta Life Sciences while promoting more environmentally responsible practices and a more sustainable future.”

The advanced manufacturing process employed by Azenta Life Sciences ensures its sample tubes and racks offer unequalled sample audit traceability, enabling sample tracking and data sharing between multiple users, labs, locations, and automation capabilities. Working across a wide range of industries including biobanking, compound management, consumer genomics, synthetic biology, and basic research, Azenta Life Sciences are committed to providing the highest levels of customer service, support, and quality.
