Soft Plastic Packaging Recycling

Labs are careful about consumable waste. Packaging rarely gets the same attention.

Outer bags, sterile wraps, pallet wrap, stretch film, bubble wrap and pouches arrive with every consumable order, reagent delivery and piece of equipment. It is bulky, it fills general waste bins quickly, and because it is not a consumable, it tends to fall outside sustainability reporting altogether.

It is also one of the easiest things in your lab to divert. There is no decontamination, no change to how your team works, and no separate collection to arrange.
