Sustainability
Energy Efficiency
One of the best ways a laboratory can reduce energy consumption is by investing in energy-efficient laboratory equipment. Cryogenic and ultra-low temperature freezers, laboratory, biomedical, and pharmaceutical refrigerators and freezers are notorious for their high energy consumption.
Water Conservation
Steam sterilizers, or autoclaves, and laboratory washers can be sources of major water consumption. Beyond best practices of turning autoclaves off after lab hours and right-sizing your washer, many manufacturers include product options and features that can help you meet sustainably goals or achieve LEED points.
Consumables Management
Choosing laboratory products that are designed with consumable management in mind saves you money and helps cut down on disposables. From laboratory washers that precisely measure and dispense detergent to cell counters that eliminate the need for single-use microscope slides, LEC chooses products that help you better manage consumables.
