Beaker Blog:Sustainable Labs in Action: Revolutionizing Air Filtration for Greener Research and Industry
In today’s global push toward sustainability, laboratories across industries face a pressing challenge: how can they support safety and compliance while reducing their environmental impact?
Whether in pharmaceutical R&D, industrial chemical testing, biotechnology, private contract labs, or education, traditional lab operations consume vast amounts of energy and resources. They also generate significant waste. These two things make labs some of the most resource-intensive spaces within their organizations. As science continues to drive innovation and problem-solving, the need for more sustainable laboratory practices is becoming ever more urgent.
Guiding the Path to Professional Sustainability Expertise
Every day, scientists make discoveries that change lives. However, every breakthrough utilizes resources, generates waste, and carries an environmental footprint. Real change starts with the people inside those labs.
The My Green Lab Accredited Professional (AP) Program gives scientists and laboratory professionals the tools to transform their workspace through evidence-based sustainability practices. This first-of-its-kind program helps participants build meaningful, actionable skills that move their lab toward a greener future.
Become part of the movement driving sustainable science forward.
Guest post written by Floriane Leseur & Samantha Alex Gordine, Arcondis.
The world is waking up to the realities of climate change, but the healthcare sector has lagged behind in recognizing and addressing its own environmental impact. From energy-guzzling labs to resource-intensive R&D practices, healthcare and the labs that power it must now step up. The truth is clear: sustainable labs are no longer a nice-to-have. They are a must.
This month’s #HowToGreenLab tip: Close your fume hood sash when not in use!
An open fume hood isn’t just a safety concern; it’s an energy hog. Variable air velocity fume hoods can use as much energy as 3.5 homes every day when left open. Closing the sash when you’re done helps your lab cut waste and save energy without slowing down science.
