What about Computype?

We offer a variety of our own microwell plate labels and like to think the stand out feature of our product is our compatibility with a variety of processes.

Our goal is to either have a label on hand, or tailor a label to meet the specific needs of your lab. We offer pre-printed labels and blank labels. Labels for manual application and labels for automatic application. We even offer plates with custom barcodes pre-applied.

In addition to custom sequences, we are able to meet more specialized needs through color-coding and/or branding, RFID and specifically engineered labels.

Beyond the printing and application process, we offer efficiency boosting solutions—such as the Squix S3200 automated label applicator, or READY Labware Services—our custom pre-barcoded labware service.

Our ultimate goal is to give you all the tools you need to make the barcoding and labeling process as user-friendly and efficient as possible.

All four of the above companies are worth a look during your research journey. We hope this list helps take you to the next step in finding your ideal microwell plate labeling strategy.
