Sustainable Solutions For Labs Offer A Greener Choice

There's a desire amongst scientist to find sustainable solutions for lab equipment and supplies, combatting the current realities of biomedical research where waste bins are filled daily with single-use gloves, tips, petri plates, and flasks that often need to be autoclaved before they're incinerated or buried in a landfill. Single-use products, while essential for cell culture applications like high throughput screening, are unlikely to become wholly sustainable anytime soon. Corning is committed to designing for sustainability, and considers environmental impact at each step in a product's life cycle.
