Mettler Toledo analytical balance rehomed to the Netherlands

Mettler Toledo analytical balance prepared for shipping
Another piece of scientific equipment has been given a second life instead of becoming e-waste. This Mettler Toledo analytical balance was destined to be scrapped after being declared surplus. Instead, it has been rehomed with a customer in the Netherlands, where it will continue supporting research. Because analytical balances are extremely sensitive instruments, we designed custom protective packaging to ensure it arrived safely after its journey from Australia. A few days after delivery, the customer confirmed it arrived in perfect condition and praised the packaging. Every successful rehoming is another reminder that valuable scientific equipment doesn't have to end up in landfill. If your university or organisation has surplus laboratory equipment, we'd love to help give it a second life.
