ECO Recycling Tip From CU Green Labs:
Single-use plastics are a necessary evil for many labs; however, a new company, Polycarbin, has recently entered the life science consumables space, offering several purchasing options that contain at least 20% post-consumer recycled plastic (e.g., pipet tips and centrifuge tubes)! Polycarbin is now an approved CU Marketplace vendor, so please consider them when placing your next pipet tip or tube order. https://polycarbin.com/collections/the-closed-loop-collection
