Barloworld Scientific is offering a new service to customers by placing batch certificates for Pyrex® and E-Mil® flasks on their website.

Batch certificates for volumetric flasks are required by scientists in order to trace their manufacture to known standards. Now, end users can simply access the Barloworld website, enter the batch number into the required field and then download a batch certificate directly, free of charge and without the need to contact a distributor.

The batch certificates can be obtained by logging on the Barloworld Scientific website at www.barloworld-scientific.com and selecting ‘downloads’ followed by ‘batch certificates’.

Thanks to recent advances in laboratory glassware manufacturing technology, Pyrex® and E-Mil® class A volumetric flasks are also now supplied with individual serial numbers and date of manufacture etched into the base of the product. The date of manufacture allows the exact age of a flask to be known at a glance, without reference to paper certificates.
