How Using the Right Plastic Containers Can Benefit Your Lab

The chemicals, reagents, and medias you use in your lab every day are essential to your work, but do you take much time to think about the containers that hold them? If you don’t, it may be time to take a second look at those containers. Their contents are important, but the containers themselves play a crucial role in your lab. Having the right plastic containers for the job can make your lab a safer and more productive place to work. Here’s how.

They Can Improve Efficiency

Let’s face it, every plastic container is not the same. Ordering large quantities of a one-size-fits-all plastic container may seem like it makes things simpler, but the reality is that you’re less efficient using this approach. You need the right container for the job and in a lab there are plenty of different uses for plastic containers. When you look for seamless, blow-molded plastic containers, you’re also looking for a company that can custom build them to suit your needs.

VI Plastics is happy to work with you to create the mold you need and manufacture the perfect containers for your lab to help you become more efficient and so that each substance can have the container that fits it best and makes the most sense to use.

The Right Containers Are the Safest Containers

At VI Plastics, we design and manufacture class six medical grade plastics. Hence, the “VI” in VI Plastics. That means our high-quality products are made specifically for your industry and we have years of experience creating the containers that medical labs need. You can’t operate the way you want if you have concerns about leaks, discoloration, permeation, or evaporation from your plastic containers. Using the right containers you can be sure that the most sensitive chemicals and waste are being kept secure and safe within their containers designed specifically with their contents in mind.

The use of plastic containers is also a safer alternative to glass bottles and containers to ensure your employees aren’t subjected to the risks that come with having to clean up broken glass when mishaps occur.

The Better the Tools, The More Productive You Are

Any craftsman will tell you that you need the right tools for the job. Otherwise you’re stuck trying to get the same work done with subpar techniques and tools. It’s the old adage of the square peg in a round hole—it’ll fit, but you have to force it. Forcing things ends up costing you time and energy. The most productive labs have the tools they need to accomplish the task at hand. Even if that task is just storing solutions in a space-saving container, it’s still an important part of the overall productivity of your lab. Our blow-molded plastic containers can help you save space and safely store all different chemicals, reagents, medias, and waste.

Don’t waste any more time with plastic containers that aren’t up to your standards. Our experienced staff is always willing to answer your questions and work with you to get the best results for your lab. Contact us today and we can begin the process of creating the perfect mold for your lab.
