  • Go Green: Sustainable Solutions for Your Lab

Article

The scientific community has long been a leader in innovation, but with this comes a responsibility to reduce the environmental impact of laboratories. Traditional lab practices often generate significant waste, from single-use plastics to energy-intensive equipment. At Lab Supply, we are committed to supporting the shift towards more sustainable, eco-friendly lab solutions without compromising on quality or efficiency.

Did you know?
•    The average laboratory produces up to 12 times more plastic waste than an office of the same size.
•    Annually, laboratories across the globe generate around 5.5 million tonnes of plastic waste, much of which ends up in landfills or the ocean.
•    The energy consumption in a single lab can be equivalent to that of a small building, with ultra-low freezers, fume hoods, and other equipment running 24/7.

In response to these challenges, Lab Supply is proud to offer a wide range of sustainable products designed to reduce waste and lower energy consumption, while maintaining the high standards labs need for precision and reliability.

Sustainable Lab Solutions
We have curated a selection of eco-friendly alternatives to help your lab “go green,” including:

•    Reusable and recyclable plastics for reducing single-use waste.
•    Energy-efficient equipment like low-energy instrumentation that minimise power consumption.
•    Eco-friendly consumables such as pipette tips, green solvents, test strips and more.

Why It Matters
By choosing sustainable lab products, your organisation can take a significant step in reducing its environmental footprint. Not only does this help to decrease plastic waste and energy usage, but it also sets a positive example for others in the scientific community.

Our Go Green initiative is more than just a commitment to offering eco-friendly products—it’s a step toward creating a future where laboratories operate with minimal environmental impact. Explore our Go Green product range and learn how your lab can be part of the solution.
