Transcript of GREEN SOLVENTS ECO DOT FOR SUSTAINABLE LABORATORY …
As a start-up, we’re developing a service for laboratories that will collect disposables, disinfect them, clean them, sterilize them and return them to be reused again. It’s estimated[1] that global disposable ��������������������������������������������� �����with an increase in research expenditures and (covid) diagnostics hasn’t shrunk since 2014. Currently, this waste is being ��������������������������������������and dumped in land�lls otherwise. Luckily many people, research institutes and hospitals see that this needs to change, but how?
I’m Bas Tuenter, founder of Sustainables, a start-up with the goal to prevent all this waste! Last summer I graduated in Molecular Life Science from the Radboud University Nijmegen, the Netherlands. During my study, I became convinced that we need to be the change to prevent the climate crisis and got involved in the international youth climate movement. I started to change my own behaviour and helped others to do the same. But when I did my internship, something was incredibly o�. While culturing my cells, I was creating buckets of waste while I brought a reusable bag to the grocery aisle. That’s when I decided to �x this wasteful practice and started Sustainables.
The goal is to ������������������������������� ������������������� �������������� ������������������With reusable material, that’s being cleaned and returned, researchers have no extra tasks in their already busy schedule. Single-use items are being banned while research and medical disposables are exempt, but for how long? We need to look at ������������and �� �� is the most sustainable option.
As a start-up I’m still in the development phase which means ���� ��� ����� �������� In order to implement this initiative, I need sustainable minded people to give feedback, test and eventually make the transition to reusables. If you’re intrigued by this initiative, want to know more, help or even start something yourself, please reach out to me and ������������������������������� ������������ ���������� ���������������������������������������� ������������

The UN Global Goals, our certi�cations in ISO 14001 (environment) and ISO 45001 (working environ-ment) guide us in the planning of our work. The goals and standards help us decide what is right and what is wrong in our decisions and considerations about how to best integrate sustainability in our business. Our focus on sustainability also obliges everyone in our company to ensure not only that we are a �nancially successful business, but that we generate our pro�ts in a socially and environmentally sound way. With our long experience in the proper handling of environmental aspects and the working environment, it was a natural course for us to obtain certi�cations to prove it. We are proud to announce that we have obtained both ISO 14001 (environment) and ISO 45001 (working environment) certi�cation.Holm & Halby is also part of the Swedish AddLife group, which has selected three of the UN Global Goals as focus areas for the group, including Holm & Halby. It is obvious for us to focus particularly on global goal 12 “Responsible consumption and produc-tion” as this is an area in which our type of company can make the biggest di�erence. “Responsible consumption and production” include aspects of a product’s life from cradle to grave – an area in which we o�er advice and support in the proper handling in all product phases.
Responsible consumption and production
The illustration below shows how we o�er services throughout every product phase, the aim being to ensure the freezer can remain in use for the longest possible time with minimum consumption throughout its service life – and that it is subsequently disposed of properly. To do so, we must focus on areas that are not always thought of as being part of sustainability, e.g. proper use and proper ongoing maintenance.For example, when we select freezers for our product range, we look for best overall performance in terms of number of tests in relation to consumption – we o�er advice on the best location of the freez-er to achieve the best energy use and optimum service life. We have courses in proper maintenance for companies that do not purchase these services from us. If the freezer needs to be repaired, this must be done in a legally correct manner by a certi�ed technician to avoid pollution from refrigerant gases – and �nally, when the freezer is to be disposed of, it is important for the product’s total environ-mental footprint that this is done in compliance with the Elretur responsibilities.This means that you can always contact one of Holm & Halby’s product specialists or technicians for advice about increased sustainability for your current or future products; we already have experience with integrating your sustainable product from cradle to grave – and this will allow you carry on with your daily work, yet at a much lower resource consumption.

As we are certi�ed ISO 14001 we always look to be more green. As examples, we recycle packaging,
pick up used pipette boxes, Styrofoam boxes and carboard
boxes. The pipette boxes are picked up for granulation, which
is then used for new plastic products. All our sales team in
Sweden take notes of how many Km they drive to customers, to
calculate CO2. When buying from suppliers, we order in big
quantities and containers.Our goal is for all company cars
to become electric cars.

Hounisen Laboratorieudstyr A/S is a Danish, family-owned supplier of laboratory consumables, equip-ment, and chemicals to universities, laboratories, hospitals, and the pharmaceutical industry. Our mission is to make it easier, more �exible, and economical to buy quality consumables at the best price.As a retailer of primarily plastic consumables, we are aware of our responsibility to use plastic with care. We are committed to UN’s Sustainable Development Goal 12 (Ensure sustainable consumption and production patterns) by ensuring better opportunities for recycling plastic, minimizing waste during transport, and choosing suppliers with high demands during production. Our latest environmental initiative is a new solar photovoltaic system at the roof of the o�ce building.
Hounisen invest in the future: Sustainable return system and on-time delivery
SARSTEDT and Hounisen – Partners for a sustainable development The focus on environmental protection is highly integrated in the Management System of our main supplier, SARSTEDT. The company’s Quality Management System is certi�ed in accordance with ISO 13485 (Medical Devices QM-Systems), and the Energy Management is certi�ed in accordance with EN ISO 50001 and con�rmed by TÜV Rhineland.SARSTEDT contribute to environment protection, for example, by low weight products, in-line-recy-cling systems in production, reduced packaging volume, recycling of packaging, optimized trans-port, and reduced energy consumption and CO2 emission during production.
Hounisen and SARSTEDT present a new sustainable revolutionTogether with SARSTEDT, Hounisen introduce a sustainable return system for pipette tips in Denmark. We call it Re�ll Revolution. With this new project we are committed to making better use of our plastic resources by recycling the packaging from pipette tips. SARSTEDT’s innovative pipette system combines exceptionally high quality with minimum material requirements. With its ideal packaging the system requires up to 64% less material, and thus saves energy during production. The sophisticated stacking system o�ers space for 480 tips. This saves 70% storage space and uses just the footprint of one box. SARSTEDT's packaging is made of pure polypropylene, and the individual components can be recycled, meaning the amount of waste is reduced. Furthermore, components of the pipette system can be stacked on top of each other to save volume during disposal.
At Hounisen we have a responsibility to ensure the supply of quality consumables to universities, hospitals, and laboratories in Denmark. We o�er next day delivery on stock items as well as tailor-made framework agreements to ensure on-time delivery of critical consumables.Our role as a trusted supplier became even more vital when the COVID-19 pandemic exposed vulner-abilities in the global supply chains. Consequently, we now invest in a new, large warehouse located near Aarhus, Denmark. Our investment ensures better prices and faster delivery to our customers. An additional bene�t will be a reduction of our total CO2 emissions due to optimized logistics and trans-portation.

BioNordika represents several world leading, highly innovative suppliers/manu-
facturers of biological reagents and niched instru-
mentation for the life science community.
Aims for:� ����� - Many of our suppliers
have implemented quality standards such as ISO, FDA, cGMP, and many others to
ensure a high level of product quality.
��������������� - Our product specialists and product
managers have a scienti�c background to enable a high level of scienti�c communica-tion relevant to our products,
services, and applications.
�������������� - Fast and secure deliveries from our warehouse just
outside CPH where our products are stored and in the greater CPH area, we handle all deliveries ourselves
�����������������������- As a distributor, BioNordika has an
indirect impact on the environment, hence, it is important for us to set requirements that our suppliers
must meet. Thanks to our lengthy and well-established relationships
with our suppliers, we have the opportunity to require high stan-
dards on materials and sustainable production at every level. BioNordi-ka is responsible for obtaining and
delivering the products we sell.
Consequently, e�cient logistics and warehouse management are
essential, which contribute both to reduce environmental impact. For example, most of our�����������
from Cell Signaling Technology, are ������������������������������������� ��, because the stability of the antibodies allows it. Several tests shows that the antibodies are
just as active when shipped at room temperature as on ice. A nice
environmentally friendly feature resulting in less waste of materials.
�����������������������������– As an environmentally conscien-
tious company, we have initiated a ����������������� of our own packing material to reduce the
waste of cool packs and Styrofoam boxes. �������������������� If your
institute or department are inter-ested in the BioNordika packing

Both INTEGRA and Sartorius manufactures tips re�ll systems making it possible to recycle the
box itself and thereby save on plastic waste.
Both manufacturers voluntarily participates in the triangle
scheme, where end users can see how to sort their pipette tip
boxes. This ensures the best possible recycling of the plastic.
In order for plastic to be recy-cled, users are required to sort
correctly. A lot of plastic cannot be recy-
cled and colored plastic can be a challenge for the sorting
machines when melting the plastic for reuse.
Dandiag is constantly striving to optimize its CO2 footprint in collaboration with suppli-
ers and customers.

ECO DOT
We support the concept of ��������������� and the growing awareness of the environmental impact of
chemical products and their production processes.
Green solvents are an important part of this sustainable chemistry
At CHEMSOLUTE® you will therefore �nd, in addition

It is important to Th. Geyer to protect humans and the envi-

eco dot.
To classify these products, we not only use the informa-tion we get from our suppli-

dot or not. This allows you to more
easily �nd sustainable prod-ucts for your laboratory – ���� �����������������
