Azlon : Quels plastic of laboratory réutilisables ?

A brand of the DWK Life Sciences group, Azlon offers one of the most comprehensive ranges of reusable laboratory plastics: bottles, wash bottles, beakers, measuring cylinders, jugs and sample containers. Widely adopted in R&D, quality control and production, the brand combines chemical resistance, ergonomic design and excellent legibility. In PP, LDPE, HDPE, PMP, PTFE or PC, each piece is designed for intensive use, from bench to field, with autoclavable versions where required.

A trusted partner, rooted in British plastics engineering

Azlon was born in the UK, within the ecosystem that pioneered the use of technical polymers in the laboratory. For decades under SciLabware, the brand made robust, precise, reusable labware mainstream for safe measuring, transferring and storage. Joining the DWK Life Sciences group expanded its global reach and innovation capacity, while preserving its original DNA: reliable products that are easy to identify and handle, day in, day out. Today, Azlon equips thousands of laboratories across Europe and worldwide, from higher education to the most demanding QC and production environments. Its constant: technical plastics that streamline workflows and secure results, day after day.

Expertise and areas of specialisation

At the core of Azlon expertise: reusable plasticware that combines chemical safety, volumetric accuracy and mechanical strength. The range covers the essentials of modern laboratories with wide- or narrow-neck bottles (for sample transport and storage), colour-coded wash bottles with solvent names and safety pictograms, graduated beakers and jugs for preparation, as well as tubes and measuring cylinders. Materials are selected for the task: PP for versatility and autoclavability, PMP for optical clarity and excellent dimensional stability, LDPE/HDPE for flexibility or mechanical robustness, PTFE when inertness is paramount, PC for transparency and impact resistance. Careful finishes — legible graduations, leak-tight caps, anti-drip collars — make repetitive tasks safer in R&D and quality control. In production, material reliability minimises downtime and allows repeated cleaning cycles. The broad choice of sizes — from millilitres to several litres — helps standardise protocols and batch traceability. Solvent-resistant printed surfaces and dedicated labelling areas reduce errors, even in humid or teaching environments. Finally, Azlon’s reusable approach helps cut waste versus single-use disposables, without compromising performance.

Azlon brand FAQs

What types of products does Azlon offer?
A wide range of reusable plastics: bottles, wash bottles, beakers, graduated cylinders, jugs and sample containers, suitable for R&D, QC and production.

Are Azlon products autoclavable?
Yes, several PP or PMP lines are. Conditions (temperature, duration, number of cycles) vary by model; refer to DWK Life Sciences technical datasheets.

What is the chemical compatibility of the materials?
It depends on the polymer: PTFE provides the highest inertness; PP/HDPE are suitable for acids and bases; use with solvents must be checked in the compatibility tables.

Is Azlon engaged in a CSR approach?
Yes. The reusable focus reduces waste and aligns with the sustainability and resource efficiency commitments of DWK Life Sciences.

What guarantees of quality and traceability are offered?
Products are manufactured under quality systems aligned with international standards. Each item has a technical datasheet detailing performance and traceability.
