In this article we will look at Microtubes, Cryotubes, and Cryovials. We will compare what the products are made of. We will break down the temperatures at which they can be stored. We will also try to rank the manufacturer by Customer Service and Price. Lastly, we will look at the Distributors and how good customer service handles its customers.
First thing first, Cryovial Boxes are used be labs to store vials in cold storage, but did you know that they are also used heavily in the Gun Industry. I found through research, all kinds of test tube boxes being used to store bullets, shells, and even gun powder. So it came as no surprise that the further I reached into the many uses of these boxes, the more uses I found. Night clubs also use them to serve shots. It’s not just the Medical industry any more.
Plastic Used to make themSo far, I see Polypropylene and Polycarbonate as the Dominate Plastics used to make these boxes. The difference in these two can be huge. For one, Polycarbonate can dip to 190 degrees with out cracking, where as Polypropylene can only dip to 110 degrees below. So depending on what you will be using this product for, you may want to choose your product wisely. Heathrow Scientific (Polypropylene) and Dr Chery Disposables (Polypropylene and Polycarbonate) offer these types of plastics.
ManufacturersHeathrow Scientific (3 out of 5) Good
Heathrow Scientific - is one of the biggest players in this market with many products to choose from and a large selection of other products to compliment their Cryovial Boxes (Microtube Boxes). Our only problem with this company is the Price. We can't find them at their competitor’s price. We also had a hard time finding them with one name, as every distributor had a new naming system and price. Lastly, what was considered a case varied from site to site? So come on Heathrow Scientific, help me on this one. Our overall rating will be 3 out of 5. Not bad, but lets see what Dr Chery brings.
Dr Chery Disposables (5 out of 5)
Dr Chery Disposables- Ok, now from what we could find out about this company, we know they are a new player and have a small product line. But this is not a bad thing, since their product fits in Heathrow Scientifics’ racks as well. Price is always the product killer, and you know what, they offer their product at very low prices, we happened to get our hands on this one and it’s a clean design. When we noticed the 3 rounded corners and 1 square corner, it was obvious that this made it much easier and faster to know which vials where placed in which slots. They offered more colors, and could be bought OEM from the Manufacturer. Our beef with these guys is Distribution. They are not on a lot of the major Distributor sites, but we spoke to the owner, and that will be coming this year. We did find a lot of Video Reviews of this product, which means it will soon be in all those little searches we love so dear from google. We gave them 5 out of 5.
Summary
We looked at both products and Dr Chery Disposables had the best customer features, low prices, and you just felt like you weren't a number. That’s the Skinny for this week, next week I will be looking at the Amico Shin Guards.
