                   Disposable PIPETTE TIP WASHERS are a game changer!
                   Pipette tips are in critical shortage. Grenova offers a
                   solution to protect supplies, cut costs, and control your
                   lab’s supply chain.

HIGH-THROUGHPUT    Since 2014, Grenova has provided the lab industry with the only patented and
                   scientifically proven green technology capable of washing, sterilizing, and reusing
                   pipette tips in large quantities. Over 100,000,000 pipette tips have been washed
                   and reused by Grenova, proving the safety and effectiveness of the only reuse

    TIP WASHERS
                   technology available today. Grenova’s tip washers were developed and have been
                   tested in CLIA- and CAP-approved labs on multiple assays without carryover.
                   In addition, they are implemented by the NIH, NCI and CDC.
