I bought a box of 100 new test tubes from our departmental stores yesterday. They came in a cardboard box which, when opened, revealed layers of test tubes separated by cardboard partitions. Nothing new there.
Except that each layer of tubes was held in place in a vacuum-moulded plastic tray. What a waste of plastic - a little bit of tissue paper would have been quite adequate.


Well done Fischer Scientific!
In fairness, I must admit that they are quite good test tubes.
