RACKS TOWER

First of all, let's get to know this tool better and its areas of application. Tower tips are a type of pipette tip characterized by a stackable structure, designed to optimize space and ensure practical and functional organization in laboratories of all types. Unlike traditional pipette tips, tower tips are housed in transparent plastic containers shaped like a tower—hence the name. These containers allow multiple layers of tips to be stacked, keeping them easily accessible, visible, and neatly arranged.

What are they mainly used for? These tips are designed to aspirate and transfer liquid samples with maximum precision and reliability, being compatible with leading micropipettes and manual pipettes. Their shape and structure also provide protection against external contamination, preserving the quality and purity of samples. Tower tips are particularly useful in high-volume analysis environments or situations where speed and practicality are key factors, as they help save time and space while maintaining maximum safety and hygiene during use.

Tower tips are designed to offer several advantages in terms of efficiency, practicality, and safety in laboratory operations. One of their key features is their stackable design: the tower-shaped structure allows multiple levels to be stacked on top of each other. This optimizes space and keeps tips well-organized and visible, reducing the risk of clutter in high-intensity work environments where order is essential.

Additionally, they are made from high-quality plastic materials such as polypropylene (PP)—as found in our Monolabshop products—or other highly durable materials. These materials ensure long-lasting performance, resistance to breakage, and compatibility with a wide range of chemical reagents. Moreover, the selected materials do not interfere with samples or react with them, ensuring precise and reliable results.

The tower design also enhances usability, improving efficiency and speed in daily laboratory work. The container shape allows easy removal of the tips without the need for direct handling, significantly reducing the risk of contamination.

Another major benefit is their universal compatibility: tower tips fit a wide range of manual and micropipettes, including models from top brands like Gilson and Eppendorf. This makes them a versatile choice for various laboratory applications.

Thanks to their sealed packaging, tower tips remain protected from external contamination until use. Some models even feature a cover or protective shield to maintain sterility and prevent dust accumulation. This ensures maximum hygiene and safety, while also simplifying disposal. Since tower tips are disposable, they can be easily discarded immediately after use, preventing cross-contamination and maintaining laboratory sterility.

Tower pipettes are an excellent choice in laboratory situations that require high efficiency and optimal organization. When choosing to use tower pipettes, various factors are considered, including practicality and the need to maintain a clean and safe working environment.

Among the situations where it is more convenient to use them, there are narrow or crowded spaces. If you work in a small laboratory where space is limited, in fact, tower pipettes are perfect: their tower design allows containers to be stacked, optimizing space without compromising accessibility. This allows you to keep a large number of tips in order and within reach, without taking up too much surface area.

Even in cases of high usage frequency, they are the most suitable choice. In high-intensity laboratories, where pipettes are used repeatedly during workdays, tower pipettes are very useful for speeding up access to tips. With their tower arrangement, it is possible to take a tip without difficulty and without compromising work efficiency.

If the laboratory is involved in taking samples from multiple containers, using tower pipettes can help a lot, allowing a series of easily reachable tips to be available, without having to constantly interrupt the workflow to open new containers or find new tips. It can also be a matter of preventing contamination, as the tips in the tower are generally sealed in packaging.
