Summary:
PulpFixin has partnered with Wildcat Laboratory Solutions to bring its sustainable, high-performance lab products to pharmaceutical and biotech labs across the UK and Europe.
Takeaways:
- The partnership expands access to compostable and recyclable lab consumables that meet strict automation and performance requirements.
- PulpFixin’s products, sealed with FutureFilm, perform in demanding lab conditions while supporting environmental goals.
- The collaboration supports the UK’s net-zero targets, with product demonstrations planned at SLAS Europe 2025 in Hamburg.
PulpFixin, a US-based provider of sustainable lab products, has entered a partnership with Wildcat Laboratory Solutions, an established UK supplier of lab equipment and consumables for automation to make PulpFixin’s fully compostable, biodegradable, and recyclable alternatives to single-use plastics available directly to pharmaceutical and biotech labs across the UK and Europe.
“UK labs are under pressure to hit sustainability targets without compromising lab performance,” said Haakon Howard, managing director of Wildcat Laboratory Solutions. “PulpFixin offers exactly what our customers need: automation-ready, high-performing products that align with their environmental goals.”
Sustainability Will Be found in Range of Products
Produced from recycled or sustainably-produced materials, PulpFixin products, including AutoRacks and Cryoboxes, are engineered to perform under demanding conditions—such as cryogenic storage and high-throughput automation. This is made possible by sealing them with FutureFilm, a proprietary, fossil fuel–free barrier that resists moisture and contamination.
“We’re excited to bring our zero-waste lab solutions to the UK and EU through this partnership,” says Kip Matthews, president of PulpFixin. “This is about more than product—it’s about accelerating a shift away from single-use plastics in science.”
Goal is Net Zero Laboratories
PulpFixin and Wildcat aim to support the UK’s push toward net zero by enabling labs to transition to more sustainable practices without sacrificing precision, safety, or performance. Scientists will be able to see for themselves how these innovative products can improve their lab sustainability by visiting Wildcat Laboratory Solutions at SLAS Europe in Hamburg from 20 to 22 May 2025 where PulpFixin products will be on display at stand 205.
PulpFixin designs and manufactures high-performance, sustainable alternatives to traditional single-use lab plastics. All products are 100% compostable, biodegradable, and recyclable, built to perform under real-world lab conditions while aligning with modern sustainability mandates.
