1: Trend, economic factor, buzzword – Sustainability in the laboratory
A total of 181 million hits on Google speak for themselves: Sustainability has long been more than just a trend. Sustainable management, the responsible use of finite resources, is already an established economic factor. And this doesn’t stop at laboratories, either. Many companies in the relevant sectors are therefore making efforts to curb their ecological footprint. And this is relatively large, because in laboratories many articles can only be used once.
At present, bioplastics made from corn and the production and use of recyclable plastics feature as the most promising solutions. With its sustainable manufacturing and recycling processes, Starlab International GmbH ranks as one of the pioneers in the industry and thanks to ISO 14001 certification, it is also officially a “green company”. True to the philosophy of “reduce, reuse, refill and recycle”, Starlab has designed its products from the ground up to be sustainable. This starts with product design and ends with recycling. Take, for example, the new generation of “TipOne” pipette tips that Starlab manufactures with up to 40 percent less plastic compared to their older tips. The associated tip racks can be autoclaved several times with no negative impact on stability, form or function, and can be reloaded with the patented TipOne refill systems. If racks have to be disposed after multiple use, they are simply recycled. They then find a second useful life in products such as garden furniture, roll containers or car batteries. “Our customers are increasingly demanding greener solutions for disposable plastics for which there is no alternative in view of legal regulations. They are keen to reduce their consumption of resources and the amount of waste they produce. That is why we offer products that help to satisfy these needs in a sustainable cycle from production through to recycling,” as Klaus Ambos, Managing Director of Starlab International GmbH, outlined.
2: Lab 4.0 – Key issue in the laboratory environment at least until 2022
Sustainability and digitization are the key issues for the future for laboratories. Because things will really heat up when “Laboratory 4.0” in the form of a digitized and intelligently networked laboratory results in greater sustainability.
