Systematic approach to the thorough and gentle cleaning of laboratory glassware

In the interests of the effective reprocessing of laboratory utensils and the long-term preservation of the value of expensive equipment, Miele Professional is also be offering process chemicals – specifically formulated for a variety of applications and soils and designed to match the new and powerful lab washers due to be launched in spring.

As a purveyor of systems and solutions, Miele Professional has been successful with similar products in the dental field for the past 5 years. Under the label System4Lab, Miele is now offering a comprehensive portfolio of products for the reprocessing of laboratory glassware – from undercounter lab washers to large-capacity decontamination units with a full range of associated accessories and services. The new ProCare Lab process chemicals have undergone extensive laboratory tests to ensure that they match the performance of Miele's high-performance lab washers. Above all, clients requiring particularly high-level and thorough reprocessing of their laboratory glassware without compromising the value of equipment are likely to profit most from this new holistic approach as laboratory equipment is ready again for analytical experiments in next to no time.

A broad range of powder and liquid detergents is available to cover a whole gamut of applications. Powder detergent is available in 10 kg containers; liquid detergent and neutralising agent comes in canisters with a capacity of 5 or 10 l. These canisters can be space-savingly stored inside the lab washers themselves (depending on model) or in special-purpose dispensing units, ensuring both safety and cleanliness. The various chemicals are colour-coded in order to prevent mix-ups. Automatic and safe dispensing of liquids is ensured by dispenser modules which also monitor the level of product in the canisters.
