Parafilm® tape is the perfect solution to prevent cross-contamination

Parafilm® tape is the perfect solution to prevent cross-contamination. This flexible, stretchable, and self-sealing thermoplastic film is widely used in laboratories for sealing and protecting containers, petri dishes, flasks, and other lab equipment. Made from a polyolefin-based material with a wax-like texture, it stretches easily and conforms to irregular shapes.

Key Features:

• Moisture-resistant and air-tight to prevent evaporation and contamination

• Highly flexible and stretchable, expanding up to 200% of its length

• Self-sealing, adhering securely to itself and smooth surfaces

• Short-term chemical resistance to acids, bases, and organic solvents

• Non-toxic and odorless, making it safe for biological and chemical research

Common Uses:

• Sealing flasks, beakers, and bottles to minimize evaporation or leaks

• Wrapping pipettes and tubing to secure connections

• Protecting specimens from environmental exposure

• Temporary labeling of bottles and containers

Parafilm is an essential tool in microbiology, chemistry, and life sciences due to its versatility and superior sealing properties. Available in a bag of 15 strips, each measuring 30 cm long and 5 cm wide.
