Sustainability Improvements: Sample Containers
We understand the importance of minimizing waste, reducing carbon emissions associated with transportation, reducing the amount of raw materials in a product, and optimizing storage space. With this in mind, we will be reducing the size of our two glass soil jars. This transition offers several key advantages:
- Reduced Carbon Footprint: By using smaller jars, a greater quantity of product can be shipped to i2 in each shipment, thereby reducing the number of deliveries required and the total weight transported. This results in a significant decrease in carbon emissions associated with transportation.
- Minimized Waste: Less sample waste due to smaller sample sizes being submitted.
- Optimized Storage Space: Switching to smaller jars allows for more effective use of storage space both at i2 and at your site(s), mitigating potential supply issues in the marketplace, and ensuring resource availability.
- Maintained Quality of Analysis: Rest assured, the transition to smaller jars will not compromise the quality or reliability of our services. Our team has rigorously tested and ensured that the new packaging maintains the integrity of the samples and meets our stringent quality standards.
We will be introducing the new 30g and 60g jars in July 2024. Please feel free to use up any of the existing 60g and 250g jars you may have. The plastic tubs will still be required for asbestos, inorganics, leachates, PSDs, etc.
This transition aligns with our shared commitment to sustainability and environmental responsibility. Should you have any questions or require further information, please do not hesitate to reach out to your customer support team at reception@i2analytical.com
Thank you for your continued partnership and support as we work toward a more sustainable future.
