For more than 20 years, Thermo Fisher Scientific has been at the forefront of innovation in the manufacturing of high grade plastic consumables, with a focus on providing plastic solutions for molecular biology applications, including PCR and qPCR. The quality and reliability of our products enable you – our customer – to ensure the accuracy, reproducibility and validity of your biological data.
Accuracy and reproducibility
We have the essentials to ensure that your development and manufacturing projects are a success
• State-of-the-art injection molding manufacturing facility located in the UK
• Custom development teams rapidly take ideas from concept, through design, prototyping, tool making, molding, quality control and logistics at one site
• Expertise in manufacturing with a wide range of different polymers
• Product assembly and packing know-how to deliver exactly what you need, with the option to either receive white box products or to define your own requirements for custom manufacturing, barcoding, packaging and/or labeling
• Quality systems to respond to your evolving requirements with rigorous supply chain, manufacturing process and quality control documentation
• Dedicated account representatives to provide you with world-class customer service
We eliminate contaminants at the source, providing you with peace of mind
• All plastic consumables are produced in injection molding facilities that meet class 100,000 cleanroom (ISO 5 cleanroom) standards
• Virgin medical-grade polypropylene
• Primary packaging is contained within class 100,000 cleanroom
• In vitro diagnostics (IVD) manufacturing requirements are met via a dedicated molding and packing installation running in a class 10,000 cleanroom (ISO 4 cleanroom)
• Production runs 24 hours a day, seven days a week according to ISO 9001 guidelines with complete traceability and process controls

High Efficiency, Reduced VariabilityUniform, ultra-thin well walls deliver maximum and consistent heat transfer for equally high performance from every sample.
Secure, Easy SealingSpecially designed caps
create a tight seal that is still easy to open and close.
Strip tubes are available in individually attached
cap versions.
Innovative product design
Evaporation ProtectionRaised rim design around each well enables secure sealing and safeguards against evaporation.

Plate Type
Legend• Recommended Plate• Alternative Option
Please refer to the following compatibility tables to find the Thermo Scientific™ plate suitable for your instrument. Plate model recommendations are based on the optimal PCR performance and ease of handling. Most recommended plates are either fully skirted or semi-skirted as these plates offer increased rigidity, which reduces plate warping during thermal cycling, facilitates multi-channel pipetting, and improves overall ease of use.

minimize the air space
above the PCR reaction,
further reducing evaporation
effects. We recommend that
you choose the low-profile
options where available.

Injection molding is the technique used for the reproducible production of identical, high-precision components. We use only medical-grade polymers in this process, and our engineers are continually improving the technology we use to develop and manufacture products. Molds are made using the latest machine-cutting technology, before being hand-finished by our highly skilled craftsmen. Every new manufacturing project requires the development and creation of a new tool – and we have made hundreds.
