Get lab pipette tips back, recover Polypropylene, Polystyrene & Other, and meet compliance across global markets — without operational headaches.

Laboratory pipette tips are single-use plastic consumables used billions of times annually across research and clinical facilities worldwide. Made primarily from high-grade polypropylene, these precision-molded tips accumulate as contaminated lab waste, creating disposal costs and regulatory compliance challenges while valuable polymer materials are lost to landfill or incineration.
With Resourcify, manufacturers can run compliant take-back programs that:
Most tips are lightweight precision components, but material-rich. A typical unit contains:
This composition, especially the Polypropylene and Polystyrene, makes lab pipette tips ideal candidates for structured take-back programs.
Recycling sounds simple — doing it consistently and compliantly across regions is complex. Resourcify sets up and runs scalable take-back programs worldwide, connecting companies, processors, dismantlers, logistics and recyclers in one platform.
Collect used tips in dedicated containers, separating by contamination level and polymer type.
Apply steam sterilization or chemical treatment to eliminate biological contaminants safely.
Remove residual liquids and sort by plastic type using automated optical recognition systems.
Shred sterilized tips into uniform flakes and wash to remove any remaining contamination.
Melt and extrude clean polymer flakes into standardized pellets for manufacturing reuse.
