When label failure means compromised traceability, regulatory violations, or production downtime, choosing the right label supplier is critical. We analyzed industrial label manufacturers in harsh-environment durability across chemical, heat, and abrasion resistance. We evaluated material specifications, temperature ranges, testing certifications, application breadth, and customer validation across blood banking, cryogenic storage, tire manufacturing, pharmaceutical cleanrooms, electronics […]

Computype’s greenhouse gas emissions reduction targets have been approved by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). The SBTi Target Validation Team has confirmed that our scope 1 and scope 2 target ambition is aligned with a 1.5°C pathway — the most ambitious designation currently available through the SBTi process. This approval marks an important step […]

In cryogenic environments, labels are expected to survive some of the harshest conditions found in the lab, including ultra-low temperatures, long term storage, moisture, and repeated handling. When they do not, lab teams often do what they must do to keep work moving. Rubber bands. Tape. Secondary containers. Sharpie backups.These workarounds are common and understandable, […]

Reusable labware is becoming more common. Many labs are looking for ways to cut waste without disrupting their workflows, and one of the easiest places to start is with the supplies they already use every day. Washing and reusing labware has become a practical step toward a more sustainable operation. The challenge is figuring out […]

Upgrading outdated or handwritten labels with durable 2D barcodes brings older vials into alignment with automated workflows, digital tracking systems, and future compliance needs. Our cryogenic puck and bottom labels apply securely to frozen vials, maintain accuracy at ultra low temperatures, and integrate seamlessly with LIMS.

In a regulated lab, compliance isn’t just about checking boxes, it’s about building systems that naturally prevent errors, protect data integrity, and ensure reproducibility. Whether your lab aligns with GLP, GCP, CLIA, ISO 15189, or FDA expectations, the principles behind compliance are the same: maintain control, consistency, and traceability across every sample, process, and data […]

Veterinary reference labs operate at the intersection of science, precision, and speed. Every day, thousands of samples arrive, each carrying vital information that will shape a diagnosis, treatment, or research outcome. In this fast-paced environment, labeling isn’t just another step in the workflow; it is the backbone of traceability, compliance, and trust. A single mislabeled […]

In animal health, sample accuracy starts the moment you collect it. Whether you’re drawing blood from cattle for disease surveillance, swabbing a dog’s mouth in a mobile clinic, or collecting wildlife samples in the field, labeling is the vital precursor to achieve reliable results. But here’s the truth: field conditions make labeling harder than most […]

In any laboratory, ensuring accuracy and reliability in experimental results is vital. One of the key components in maintaining such standards is effective pipette management. When adhering to Good Laboratory Practice (GLP), laboratories must maintain precise records of equipment usage and their condition. However, this can be challenging due to the high number of pipettes, […]

A new ultra-high recovery vial is now available from Worldwide Glass Resources®, offering a refined solution for labs seeking the highest possible sample recovery. Building on the success of high recovery vials, this latest advancement continues the industry’s pursuit of precision by pushing the limits of vial design, engineering, and specialty glass production.

Optimizing efficiency is essential for the success of any high-throughput laboratory. From managing incoming samples to ensuring accurate data capture, every step in the accessioning process plays a role in research integrity and operational success. Yet, many labs struggle with bottlenecks, duplicate sequences, chain of custody issues, and even sample loss — all stemming from ineffective […]
