The installation named "4 weeks of pipetting" contained nearly 0.5 tonnes of pipette tip boxes, which were used in August in EMBL Heidelberg. The boxes are then send to recycle using a 100% recovery scheme at Rixius.

We participated in the Green Labs Portugal Symposium and proudly showcased our initiatives and shared our experience with the LEAF certification program. The day culminated with the signing of the Institutes Commitment Letter 📜 Together we are paving the way for a greener future🌏🌿

Looking forward to this discussion. Thank you BioRN Life Science Cluster Rhine-Neckar for organising. #GreenLabs #Sustainability
