Washing glassware by hand in your lab is not the best or easiest way to keep your glassware clean. Instead, the right glassware washing device can help improve the efficiency of your lab, reduce your lab’s energy and water consumption, and save your lab money. This equipment cleans glassware more effectively than handwashing and limits your lab workers’ exposure to potentially harmful substances.

Glassware washers can use a lot of energy. To optimize power usage, only run the washer when it is completely full. Additionally, running it at night when electricity rates are lower can help cut the cost.

If the glassware you’re cleaning will be used in sensitive analytical equipment, such as mass spectrometers, then additional steps may need to be taken to guard against contamination. Some washers are designed to accommodate such glassware, featuring high purity water, high temperatures, and HEPA filters incorporated into the dryers to prevent airborne particulates from reaching the glassware.
