My Green Lab® ACT® Ecolabel Certification for MALDI-8000 Series
Shimadzu Corporation, a leader in innovative mass spectrometry solutions, has the entire family of benchtop MALDI-TOF Mass Spectrometers, the MALDI-8000 series, receiving the prestigious ACT Ecolabel from My Green Lab.
ACT provides clarity in choosing more sustainable products due to the independent rigorous auditing process based on Accountability, Consistency, and Transparency (ACT) around manufacturing, energy and water use, packaging, and end-of-life.
"The ACT Ecolabel provides lab product users with independently verified data on the environmental impact of their purchases, empowering them to make informed choices," said Raj Patey, Business Development Director at Impact Laboratories, a subsidiary of My Green Lab.
Energy Efficiency
Designed to lower the carbon footprint of your laboratory operations, with the total energy consumption under typical use case of about 4.6 kWh per day. This is showing one of the lowest energy consumption of Mass Spectrometer on the market!
Waste Reduction
Compared to previous products, there has been significant dematerialization of nearly 75% by weight, to minimize hazardous waste production. The MALDI product consists largely of steel and aluminium – which are readily recyclable, and polyurethane which is somewhat recyclable or converted waste to energy.
Sustainable Materials
The product and packaging are composed almost entirely of readily recyclable materials.
