Changes in specifications

Our state-of-the-art equipment allows us great flexibility in the design of our sampling solutions to meet the needs of our partners and customers and to support them in their activities. 

Whether you want to change dimensions, features or packaging on our existing product lines, LABPLAS offers you an impressive range of possibilities! We are happy to adapt our products to your needs in order to create the ideal solution for you! 

Modifying dimensions

We understand that the sampling market is vast and is continually changing. We also know that not all samples are of equal shape, texture or size. To offer you the tools best suited to your sampling methods, LABPLAS adjusts the dimensions of its existing products to fit your precise needs. Whether it’s a narrow, long, wide, powdery, liquid or semi-liquid sample, we adapt as required! 

Specifications to be taken into account

  • Minimum length of 5 inches (127 mm)  
  • Maximum length of 20 inches (508mm) 
  • Minimum width of 3 inches (76 mm)  
  • Maximum width of 15 inches (381 mm) 

* Dimensions with decimals will be rounded up. 
* If the required dimensions exceed the above maximums or minimums, a product development project will need to be considered. 

Modifying features

Sometimes the size of a product is satisfactory but certain attributes need to be adjusted to meet your needs for optimal use. LABPLAS offers you the possibility of modifying and adjusting certain features of its existing products to create a tool that meets your expectations! 

It is possible to modify: 

1. Wall thickness 

Thickness is the width of the bag wall, also known as the thickness of the plastic tube film.

Some robust samples require a thicker-walled bag to increase strength and withstand homogenization or transport.

LABPLAS offers several thickness options: 2.5, 3.0, 3.5 and 4.0 thousandths of an inch. If you require one of the above thicknesses for a specific product, we will be pleased to take the necessary steps to offer you a product that is adapted to your needs (it is possible to modify the wall thickness on most existing product lines).

2. Type of opening

The majority of our products are offered with a “Security Barrier” type opening with perforation line, which maintains the sterility of the bag. The perforation line allows easy removal of the safety barrier without the risk of contaminating the interior.

Other products have a “Laser marking line” opening. Depending on your needs, it is possible to remove this opening system or to remove certain seals in order to create an open/unsealed product (this option may not be possible for certain types of bags).

3. The closure system

The closure system allows the bag to be easily closed and reopened, which is convenient when you want to use the bag for sample collection, transport and analysis. It also ensures that the product is waterproof and airtight.

It is possible that your activities do not require a closure system; in this case, we are pleased to adapt our products and remove that system (this option may not be available for some types of bags).

Modifying the packaging  

Do your bags need to be packaged in a special way to comply with your protocols? Would you like them to be packaged with a higher level of security? No problem! The LABPLAS team will be happy to discuss with you the best option to meet your requirements. 

Possible requirements:

  • Adding a pouch (sealed or open) 
  • Double pouch packaging 
  • Modifying the number of bags in the pouch  
  • Adding an internal box 

* The final design must be to your satisfaction and meet your needs before the next step is undertaken. Everything must be approved by you before manufacturing begins. 
* A minimum is required for the first order.
