Did you know that traditional single-stream recycling haulers do not recycle anything that looks like a lab product? To learn more about what happens to #labplastic on the back end, watch this short #documentary. Thanks to Michael LaRhette, Nicholas T. Charlton and the amazing team at LabCentral along with Veolia North America, the MassBio team: Craig Carew Steve Powell, Paul Cosgro and so many more for your support in making this happen! #greenlabs #recycling #boston #massachusetts #localrecycling
关于我们
GreenLabs Recycling collects and recycles non-hazardous plastic consumables from labs within the Greater Boston Area. We believe that by keeping recycling local, we can make it effective in terms of cost and more importantly, in terms of environmental sustainability.

Thankful for You — and Less Plastic Waste As we reflect on this Thanksgiving season, we have a lot of gratitude for the things we have … but also for what we don’t have. For us, that's all the plastic waste we keep out of landfills every year. We’re so thankful to the scientific laboratories that partner with us to prioritize environmental stewardship. Happy Thanksgiving to all! ?? #sustainability #greenlabs #gogreen

???? Sustainability Meets Science ???? In the scientific world, progress and discovery often come hand-in-hand with resource consumption. But what if we could shift the balance—minimizing our environmental footprint without compromising innovation? ?? At GreenLabs Recycling, we're on a mission to make sustainability a standard practice in labs everywhere. By properly recycling lab plastics and reducing waste, we're helping the scientific community turn its focus toward a cleaner, greener future. Imagine the impact: ?? Diverting tons of plastic waste from landfills. Reusing materials to reduce costs and conserve resources. Cultivating a culture of environmental responsibility in labs. When scientists prioritize sustainable practices, the benefits ripple outwards—to the planet, to future generations, and to the research itself. Together, we can continue advancing knowledge while protecting the world we share. ??? Let’s make the change—one lab at a time. ???? #GreenLabs #SustainabilityInScience #LabRecycling #EcoFriendlyLabs #ResearchResponsibly

How Can You Go Green? Ready to make your lab more environmentally responsible? It’s easier than you think. Here are three quick tips to increase sustainability in and out of the lab: ??1. Refine your waste management system: Do you have bins to separate your plastic waste that can be recycled from stuff like that half-eaten sandwich or paper reports? Get a collection bin from GreenLabs and station it right next to the regular trash. #CollectionBins #PP #PET ?? 2. Turn off unnecessary equipment daily: Labs use much more energy than offices! Lab equipment can account for around 25% of the total energy used in a lab, according to Harvard University. If you don’t need to leave on computers, refrigerated centrifuges, or PCR machines, make it a policy to shut down at the end of the day. ??3. Take sustainability home: It’s easier to turn your lab green if more lab workers integrate environmental habits at home. Inspire your team with action-oriented sustainable living tips today! #gogreen https://bit.ly/4c4PrUl https://bit.ly/3UmMKHW https://bit.ly/49kY8bC

We're proud to share this piece from Resource Recycling, Inc. highlighting the incredible potential of closed-loop plastic recycling within the medical and research fields. As our CEO Sam White mentioned during a recent Northeast Recycling Council (NERC) webinar, "With 30,000 tons of single-use biopharma plastic discarded globally every year, the need - and opportunity - for impactful recycling solutions is huge." ?? In 2023 alone, GreenLabs Recycling 200,000 pounds of plastic, making strides to bridge the gap. Collaboration, innovation, and logistics are key to expanding this mission. Read the full article to learn more about our work and that of others in the industry working towards a more sustainable future.
The medical and research fields hold great potential for closed-loop plastic recycling as long as logistics can be solved, some in the industry recently said – and several companies are working to do just that. The panelists?discussed?their work in an Oct. 3 Northeast Recycling Council (NERC) webinar,?“Reducing and Diverting Plastic Waste in Bio-Medical Laboratories and Facilities, Part 2: Diverse Solutions to Meet the Supply of Bio-Med Plastic Waste.” Sam White, CEO of GreenLabs Recycling, noted that 30,000 tons of biopharma single-use plastic is disposed of every year globally, much of it recyclable. GreenLabs recycled 200,000 pounds in 2023, he added, but “you can see the huge gap that we have to fill” collectively. James O'Brien, co-founder and CEO of Polycarbin, added that not only is much of the plastic disposed of by research labs recyclable, but it’s an ideal stream due to the “incredible homogeneity of plastic types,” the way that lab workflows are designed, and the interest of scientists in not only recycling but recycling accurately.
