Eco-friendly pipette tip racks should be made from an easy-to-recycle plastic and less plastic overall. Rainin TerraRack is made from the most commonly recycled plastic (Type #1 PETE) and with up to 50% less plastic than conventional racks. Available in LTS and universal-fit (UNV), filtered and unfiltered. Tips are sterilized and not autoclavable.
Advantages of Eco-Friendly Pipette Tip Racks
• 100% Recyclable
TerraRack is a revolutionary concept in tip racks. Sturdy as conventional racks, yet made
with less than half the plastic and completely recyclable. In fact, the hinged TerraRack shellis
made from PETE, which is easily recycled and aggressively recovered from the plastic waste
stream.
• Pre-Sterilized
Single-use and non-refillable, TerraRacks can be used independently or with a reusable TerraBase for added support and stability. For convenience and added cleanliness, TerraRacks are pre-sterilized, eliminating the need to autoclave (TerraRacks are not autoclavable)
• Less Waste
Made with significantly less plastic than conventional racks, TerraRacks disassemble and compress easily, which means used TerraRacks take up significantly less space in waste and recycling containers or storage vessels.
• Less Weight
A TerraRack weighs less than half what a typical injection-molded rack does. TerraRack not only reduces plastic waste but also costs less to ship and costs less to throw away where disposal rates are based on weight
