Sustainable Labs. How to Source More Energy-Efficient Products using ENERGY STAR®

Cold storage is one of the main areas of focus in reducing energy use within the laboratory, used for a wide range of applications from stocking reagents and chemicals used within laboratory processes to storing patient and research samples or medicines, biologics and other finished products.

One way of exploring for more sustainable cold storage equipment is to search for the ENERGY STAR® symbol. ENERGY STAR® is the US government-backed symbol for energy efficiency, providing simple, credible, and unbiased information that consumers and businesses rely on to make well-informed decisions, save money and protect the environment.
