Eppendorf Tubes BioBased made from cooking oil

Click2Contact

The latest generation of Eppendorf Tubes BioBased is made from 90% renewable bio-based feedstock (recycled, eg, from food oil wastes and residues) plus 10% fossil-based feedstock. Thus, these tubes in the sizes 5, 15, 25 and 50 mL with screw cap are made of certified polypropylene based on renewable, used raw materials and are called ‘BioBased’.

This means that Eppendorf is no longer focusing only on the development of new products, but also on new manufacturing materials. In line with the ‘reduce, reuse, recycle’ concept, the company’s main goal is to produce polymer products in a much more sustainable way without compromising the product quality and performance needed in increasingly demanding research.

Eppendorf’s Consumable production centre in Oldenburg, Germany, meets the requirements of the ISCC PLUS (International Sustainability & Carbon Certification) certification system. Additionally, sustainability of the tubes is certified by My Green Lab with ACT Certificates (Accountability, Consistency, Transparency).

Samples are available on request.
