Have you ever had to redo sample prep because the solvent evaporated after injection?
Or dealt with costly instrument downtime due to sticky residue on your injection needles?
Maybe you’ve been searching for a more affordable alternative to pricey silicon mats?
If any of that sounds familiar, you’re in luck—there’s a PlateSeal solution designed to make your lab work smoother, faster, and more cost-effective.
Smarter Sealing Starts Here
Interlab offers a wide range of PlateSeal sealing films and foils, all crafted to support better workflows and protect your samples. Here are just a few innovations from the range:
- QuickApply™ Dispenser – Pre-scored sheets on a roll for quick, economical application.
- RAPID Slit Sealing Film – A self-closing design that reduces evaporation and prevents contamination.
Each PlateSeal product uses application-specific adhesives, so you get the right seal without compromise.
A Seal for Every Scientist
No matter your setup, there’s a PlateSeal product tailored for your needs. For example:
- The Slit Sealing Film is pre-cut, adhesive-free, and made from silicone and PET, allowing effortless pipette or needle insertion without dragging or resistance.
- Other films and foils are built to handle long-term storage and automated systems, with temperature resistance from -80 °C to +120 °C, perfect for light-sensitive assays and robotic workflows.
- Many seals also include end-tabs with perforations to make application and removal as easy as possible.
You’ll see just how securely they seal around polypropylene plate wells—no fuss, no leaks.
Wide-Ranging Applications
From basic research to automated high-throughput labs, PlateSeal products support:
Specialist seals for bacterial, cell, and tissue applications even include medical-grade, gas-permeable membranes. These membranes are made from non-woven rayon fibre layers, allowing essential air and CO₂ exchange while maintaining a sterile environment.
Boost Your Workflow with Helpful Accessories
To make things even easier, Interlab also supplies accessories for applying your seals quickly and evenly:
- A reusable applicator tool for flat-top and raised-rim plates, ensuring even pressure across the surface
- An autoclavable roller designed for flat-top plates, providing uniform sealing pressure around every well
