smartSpatulas are economical, disposable tools for transferring, collecting, and handling chemical and biological materials. Versatile double-ended design enables use as a spatula, spoon, scoop, scraper, stirring rod, or policeman. The unique hollow core minimizes thermal transfer for effective collection of liquid nitrogen frozen samples or stirring hot liquids. Virgin polypropylene construction is resistant to dilute acids and bases. Autoclavable.smartSpatula EcoSpatula™ are produced with an additive that helps promote biodegradation in the polypropylene resin. Spatulas produced using this additive were found to biodegrade an average of 29% in the first 586 days of testing.

Biodegradation rates of ECO-spatulas were measured according to the ASTM D5511 test method. Tests were conducted using 48% solids content; solids content in naturally wetter landfills range from 55% to 65%, while the driest landfills may reach 93%. Actual biodegradation rates will vary in biologically-active landfills according the solids content, temperature, and moisture levels of the landfill.

All spatulas comply with FDA standards for food contact applications.
