03 History
Micronic milestones.
1984
Micronic started its business in March 1984 as a manufacturer of blocks, pipette tips and tubes for samples storage and sample handling. In that same year, Micronic set the standard for the 96-format tube rack that became the official SBS format in 1996.
1996
The α-numerical (A1-H12) identification including refill carrier was introduced by Micronic. The α-numerical identification was the world’s first tube identification system.
2000
The Micronic 2D TraXis code and shortly after followed by the 2D Data-Matrix code, were introduced on a 1.40ml tube. With the 2D code identification system, Micronic was the first to answer the market’s need for the unique traceability of stored samples. In the same year, code reading equipment was introduced.
2017
2019
Two of Micronic’s most popular tubes, the 1.40ml and the 4.00ml, have received an ACT label. The ACT label provides critical information on the environmental impact of lab products. The same year the state-of-the-art Tube Handler HT700 was launched.
2024
Micronic introduced the first eco-friendly rack range on the market. These Eco-Friendly Choice (EFC) racks are made of 99% in-house renewed materials, setting a new sustainable standard for sample storage racks.
