BioGREEN
Get to know our non-toxic and environmentally friendly products for laboratory diagnostics
If we increasingly turn to non-toxic and environmentally friendly products in our homes and day-to-day lives, why should it be any different in the workplace?
The use of health- and environmentally-safe products in routine laboratory work is known as green diagnostics. Its goal is to reduce the use of toxic chemicals, minimize waste, and promote sustainability—without compromising diagnostic quality. Green alternatives include biodegradable reagents, safer fixatives, energy-efficient equipment, and proper waste disposal. This approach contributes to a healthier work environment and reduces the ecological footprint of medical laboratories.
