Who are LabCycle?

Did you know?

Research has some unintended consequences. Annually 5.5 million tonnes of single-use plastic is produced by the life science laboratories alone globally (equivalent to 67 cruise liner ships!). This figure is significantly higher when including other disciplines of research. It is heart-breaking to see this enormous amount of single-use plastic waste genenrated by research and healthcare sectors.

Even worse, this waste is not being recycled!

Due to a lack of specialised recycling service, these plastics are sent to landfills in special bags or are incinerated. This linear economy has imposed environmental burdens on the land and the atmospheric system.

It's time for action.

Research institutes, private companies and healthcare sectors are coming under huge regulations, tax and funding pressure to take this problem more seriously. Meanwhile, researchers have been calling for a change to this wasteful research culture.

So LabCycle was born!
