DURAN® YOUTILITY
DURAN® YOUTILITY bottle system, a new generation of glass laboratory bottles for use in a wide and diverse range of scientific research applications. The innovation does not stop at the improved ergonomic bottle shape, but extends to dedicated accessories that incorporate many new innovative features to improve handling, sample identification, and ease of use. The new YOUTILITY bottle system helps to make laboratory work easier, safer, more economical and fun.
YOUTILITY BOTTLE – DESIGNED FOR YOU
THE AWARD-WINNING LABORATORY BOTTLE SYSTEM FROM DURAN®
YOUTILITY CAP – ONE GOOD TURN DESERVES ANOTHER
ERGONOMIC DESIGN
The optimized, ergonomic shape of the screw cap has comfortable grooves and ridges for a more efficient and easier tightening or removal, especially with smaller sized or gloved hands. The inverted cone form of the cap makes bottle handling easier and far safer.
SHORTENED THREAD
The shortened thread inside the cap permits faster opening and closing, yet it is fully compatible with standard DIN GL 45 glass bottle threads.
SECURE SEALING
The tried and tested cap plug sealing system ensures a liquid tight seal.
PRODUCT FEATURES
The YOUTILITY screw cap features an integrated two or three character Retrace Code to provide product traceability via a downloadable certificate. The cap is manufactured from a food grade polypropylene that is fully autoclavable and totally reusable.
GLASS THREAD – NO PLAYING AROUND
With the new glass threa, the opening or closing of the YOUTILITY bottles is significantly faster. Yet the thread remains fully compatiable with DIN GL45 Closures and other accessories.
BOTTLE TAGE – SHOW YOUR TRUE COLOR
COLOUR CODING
The colourful GL 45 Bottle Tags offer an elegant solution to the marking of laboratory bottles. The Bottle Tags can be easily and securely attached around the neck of the YOUTILITY bottle, even with the screw cap in place. The Bottle Tags feature a graspable tab that makes them easy to remove with bare or gloved hands.
EIGHT COLOURS
Eight playful colours: red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple, black and white. Available in single colour packs.
ROBUST AND RE-USABLE
The silicone Bottle Tags are chemically robust, heat resistant, fully autoclavable and totally re-usable.
SCALE – STEPPING UP TO THE MARK
The total volume is clearly and unambigously indicated in durable white ceramic. This enables a long service life and the measured volume can be read clearly and accurately.
BOTTLE FEATURE – GET TO GRIPS WITH YOUR RESEARCH
GRIP ZONES
The specially shaped gripping zones on both sides of the bottle permit easier and safer handling.
SPACE SAVING
The slimmer YOUTILITY bottle shape allows a more optimal use of limited space in autoclaves and laboratory refrigerators. The bottles can be conveniently stacked horizontally on their sides.
BOTTLE LABELLING
A pre-defined labelling area is compatible with the dedicated self-adhesive YOUTILITY bottle labels.
FOUR USEFUL SIZES
Sequentially sized bottles 125, 250, 500 and 1000 ml.
The glass bottles are moulded from the tried and tested DURAN® borosilicate 3.3, a pharmacopoeial Type 1 neutral glass. DURAN® glass offers a very good chemical resistance and high temperature resistance.
AMBER, LOW ACTINIC GLASS
As an alternative to clear DURAN® glass, the amber coloured glass offers protection against ultraviolet light for light sensitive material, and fully meets the requirements of the USP <660> and Eur. Ph. 3.2.1. The amber colour is permanently fired into the exterior glass surface. The treatment does not affect the properties of the inner surface of the bottle. The amber bottles can be used for the storage or transport of chemicals sensitive to light.
RETRACE CODE
Integrated Retrace Code for full product traceability of the borosilicate glass bottle.
OPTIMISED PACK SIZES
Good things come in small packages. YOUTILITY bottles are available in smaller pack of four complete bottles.
LABELS – A PLACE FOR EVERYTING
YOUTILITY LABELS
The YOUTILITY labels were developed to address the need for a reliable, short term method of sample, cap and bottle tracking and identification. The labels will stay on when you need them to do so, and are easy to remove when no longer required. This allows the bottles and caps to be quickly and easily cleaned, ready for re-use. After use, the YOUTILITY labels may be easily and completely removed by peeling.
ROBUST BUT FLEXIBLE
Manufactured from a tear resistant, matt white, polyester material coated with a high performance adhesive. The print receptive top surface will accept a variety of inks, including copier, printer and technical markers. The labels are chemically resistant to typical laboratory chemicals such as disinfectants and many solvents. They have a wide -40 °C to +150 °C temperature performance range, making them suitable for use in fridges, freezers, autoclaves, incubators and water baths without the risk of the labels drying out or falling off.
