TipOne® Sterile Tip Refill System
Eco-friendly & safe alternative to racked sterile non-filtered tips
Great quality, good service
Manufacture of PCR Kits
The starlab products are easy to use and of a high quality. Although cheaper options are available, the recycling scheme for the plastic waste is a big positive. Only complaint is to give different sizes of tips, different colours of inserts to make it easier to spot the size you want.

Easy to use, fit all brands of pipettes.
Genomic testing
We switched to the TipOne Pipette Tips System as they cover the whole range of pipette tip sizes and filter types. The TipOne Pipette Tips System fits nicely on all brands of pipette, where we were having issues with other brands. The refill system is easy to use and reduces plastic waste, the colour coded inserts makes identifying the tip sizes easier.

Good fitting on every pipette
NGS and PCR

Can't leave without this tips, definitely have them always!
Molecular ecology
It's very reliable as shape is perfect so no falling tips out of pipettes. Has the right length so less contamination risk; they are not cheap compared to others but I wouldn't use shorter or flimsier tips to save money and compromise my work. With this tips I feel everything is more under control. Plus you can recycle the box!

Very happy with TipOne refilling systems
Biological sciences
Refills are easy to use and the system allows for the stored tips to remain clean. The system for refilling filter tips also gives reassurance that the tips remain sterile so there is no need to autoclave them after the refill. Collection of boxes afterwards is fairly practical and easily fitted into day to day routine.

The plastic-saving, safe alternative to racked sterile tips
Contamination-free sterile tip-refill system
TipOne® Sterile Refill Systems fulfill all the requirements of labs that need to use high-purity tips or filter tips.
Using racked tips produces a large amount of single-use plastic waste. With the TipOne® Sterile Refill Systems, you can reuse TipOne® racks again and again, with the confidence that the tips will still provide the cleanliness you need, every time.
Individually-wrapped - no risk to contamination and exposure of the tips
Complete contamination prevention - The fully-enclosed refill protects the integrity of the sterile product.
Quick and easy to use - the whole refill is placed into the rack. Remove the refill lid, and you're ready to go.
Why TipOne refills are the choice for eco-conscious scientists
- Up to 65% less waste compared to the equivalent racked product
- Less space - up to 20% less space needed to store & transport
- The clear bottom shell and lid are made from 100% recycled plastic
All components of the refill (excluding the tips and shrink wrap) are fully recyclable.
