Pipet Tips, epT.I.P.S.® Pipette Filter Tips, BioBased, Eppendorf®

BioBased epT.I.P.S., ep Dualfilter, SealMax® Biopur® Reload Pipette Tips
Sustainability is playing an increasingly important role in the perception and purchasing decision of customers looking for laboratory consumables. The epT.I.P.S. BioBased pipette tips, ep Dualfilter T.I.P.S. BioBased and ep Dualfilter T.I.P.S. SealMax BioBased filter pipette tips in volumes up to 1,250µL Long significantly reduce the product-related carbon footprint. These pipette tips are made of at least 90% bio-based polypropylene. They are only available in new Reload variants significantly reducing plastic waste, and represent Eppendorf's serious attempt to decouple single-use consumables from the usage of fossil resources.

Together with the use of more sustainable starting material for the pipette tips, these bio-based tips come in a Reload variant which meets the same purity and sterility requirements as conventional disposable Racks. This Reload variant saves up to 54% fossil-based plastic compared to conventional Racks and significantly reduces the volume of laboratory waste. The new Reloads fit perfectly into the well-known epT.I.P.S. Box 2.0. Thus both aspects – bio-based raw material for the pipette tips and significantly reduced use of plastic for the Reloads – contribute to an improved laboratory carbon footprint and to laboratory waste reduction.
