Every year.

We believe in taking responsibility for our environmental impact.  We’re already a certified Carbon Neutral business, but we believe we can do more still. 

That’s why we’ve partnered with Tree-Nation to plant trees!  

For every order you place, a tree will be planted in your name.

Our bit

We’re also doing our part day-to-day.

Responsibly sourced, recycled, and recyclable.  

We only use high-efficiency LED lighting in all our office and lab space, and reusable gloves for lab-work.  And we recycle too.

Boxes

Our cardboard packaging is now almost entirely FSC certified, and where possible made from a mix of recycled materials. 

Our sleeves used for packaging Pre-Poured Agar Plates and Slants are made of recyclable LDPE (Low-Density Polyethylene).

We also use biodegradable air-cushion packaging. Certified to completely biodegrade within 12-24 months!  

This process creates biomass and water which can be recycled back into nature,
