At Bactosure, we prioritise environmental responsibility in every aspect of our operations, especially our packaging. Our commitment to sustainability means our packaging is typically recyclable, made from recycled materials, or reused.
We actively reuse polyurethane foam packaging to prevent it from reaching landfills. This packaging is also repurposed for return shipments, further extending its life cycle and reducing waste.
Additionally, we encourage customers to retain equipment boxes and packaging materials. Our goal is to reuse equipment boxes up to five times before they are finally recycled, significantly reducing environmental impact through responsible packaging practices.
While virgin plastics are essential for our sample containers and test media packets to prevent contamination, we’ve innovated by using sample bags. These sterile bags contain 90% less plastic than traditional sample containers and significantly reduce volumetric shipping weight by 95%. This makes them the most environmentally friendly solution currently available for biological testing.
By continually exploring and adopting sustainable practices, Bactosure is committed to reducing environmental impact without compromising the quality and reliability of our testing solutions.
