Product news

The Rainin SpaceSaver™ Stacked Tip Refills create 85% less plastic waste than pre-filled individual tip racks. The outer sleeve functions as an automatic tip dispenser that aligns and refills 96 tips at one time into a Rainin Rack. This system is the environmentally friendly solution for rack refilling that is fast and efficient. It is one of the best systems available for reducing waste and saving space.

The entire SpaceSaver system is packaged in a code 1 PET sleeve, the same recyclable material used for plastic drink bottles. The single rack and tip layer supports are recyclable polypropylene. Some other supplier's refills systems use a polycarbonate rack which deteriorates after autoclaving and cannot be easily recycled.

In addition to the environmentally friendly benefits of SpaceSaver, there is no risk of contamination, as the sleeve, first preloaded rack and lid protects all the tips from contamination. They are available in both universal tips and Rainin's LTS LiteTouch System Tips.
