Recycling of Plastics

DWK Life Sciences offers an extensive portfolio of plastic products, from single use disposable plastics in the Ramboldi® range to reusable plasticware from the Azlon® range.

Here is some advice about recycling our plastics where appropriate.

Recycling involves the segregation of plastic products by specific resin types ready for the process of converting them into new raw materials for use in other products. In order to assist with this segregation, the Society of the Plastics Industry (SPI) had adopted a classification system to identify the seven main types of plastic where each resin is assigned a number.

Most of our products also have an SPI code permanently moulded into them.

Before recycling any items, please consider the environment and further handling. All items should be washed, cleaned and/or disinfected prior to disposal.
