In modern laboratory environments—ranging from academic institutions to research, clinical, and industrial labs—the right tools make all the difference. Laboratory plasticware combines safety, ergonomics, and affordability to elevate your lab’s efficiency. Eqipped’s well-curated Plasticware collection delivers high-quality, reliable, and flexible options to support your scientific workflows.
Why Plasticware Is Essential Across Labs
1. Safety Durability
Plasticware won’t shatter or break, dramatically reducing accidents and contamination risks—perfect for high-traffic and learner-heavy settings.
2. Lightweight Ergonomic
Comfortable handling for repetitive tasks and high-volume workflows means increased productivity and reduced fatigue. Especially valuable in setups like robotic handling systems.
3. Cost-Effective Versatile
From reusable items to sterile disposables, plasticware offers flexibility without strain on the budget—ideal for both high-throughput and routine use cases.
4. Chemical Resistance Sterilization
Materials like polypropylene (PP), HDPE, and PTFE resist many common lab chemicals. Many plastic tools are also autoclavable, blending hygiene and durability.
Everyday Plasticware Your Lab Should Have
Beakers, Graduated Cylinders Flasks – Measurement, mixing, and handling with ease
Centrifuge Microcentrifuge Tubes – Designed for speed, stability, and chemical resistance
Pipette Tips Racks – Maintain sterility and precision in liquid handling
Petri Dishes Culture Plates – Lightweight, stackable, and perfect for sterile workflows
Funnels, Wash Bottles Spatulas – Essential support tools for daily lab work
Best Practices: Maintain Plasticware Quality
| Tip | Why It Matters |
|---|---|
| Use heat-resistant types (PP) | Prevents warping or damage during autoclaving |
| Clean gently with mild detergents | Preserves clarity and avoids surface damage |
| Verify autoclave suitability | Maintains structural integrity and safety |
| Replace scratched or opaque pieces | Ensures visibility and accurate measurements |
When to Choose Plasticware Over Glass
Plasticware is the smart choice when:
Safety or unbreakability is a priority
Ergonomic handling and lightweight material matter
Budget or hygiene demands drive frequent changes
Contamination control is critical through disposables
For high-temperature tasks or applications requiring chemical inertness, glassware still holds its ground.

Quick FAQs
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Can all plasticware be autoclaved? | Only if labeled “autoclavable” (like PP or PMP); always verify before use. |
| How to limit cross-contamination? | Clean rigorously, utilize autoclaving where appropriate, and use disposables for sensitive tasks. |
| When pick plasticware over glass? | When safety, handling, and cost-efficiency outweigh the need for high-heat tolerance or precision. |
| How can I prolong plasticware life? | Handle carefully, use compatible cleaning methods, prevent heat damage, and store properly. |
