C566 ECO - The Eco-Friendly Temper Evident SpecTainer™

Container made of polypropylene / Closure made of polyethylene

The Simport^® Eco-Friendly SpecTainer™ will biodegrade to become some of the soil’s organic components in less than 7 years in constant contact with the soil instead of up to 400 years when using conventional plastics.

The Simport^® Eco-Friendly SpecTainer™, one of the most innovative specimen containers today, is now available in a new version: The Eco-Friendly SpecTainer™, a rapidly degradable Specimen Container. Plastics take hundreds of years to degrade naturally in the environment. The only necessary condition for the Eco-Friendly SpecTainer™ to biodegrade is constant contact with other degrading materials. No heat, physical stress, oxygen, or sunlight is necessary. The Eco-Friendly SpecTainer™ has the ability to break down safely and quickly, by biological means, into the raw materials of nature and disappear into the environment.

Non-sterile containers are only available with a gold color cap.

Sterile containers are only available with an aqua color cap. Sterilization: Gamma radiation.
