  • Clear Type III soda-lime glass bottle
  • PTFE-lined white polypropylene closed-top cap
  • Sizes range from 125mL to 1000mL
  • Closures assembled on bottles

Certified bottles come with the following features:

  • Certified to meet or exceed EPA performance-based standards for semi-volatile organics, pesticides, PCBs and metals analyses
  • Certificate of Analysis (CofA) included in the case and barcoded with lot number for traceability
  • Each bottle individually barcoded with lot number and unique container number
  • Analysis labels included unattached for optional use
  • Carton sealed with security tape providing tamper evidence
  • Chipboard divider packaging to cushion and help prevent breakage; overpack required for shipping

Processed bottles are processed in the same manner as certified bottles and come with all the features of certified bottles, but bottles are not barcoded and CofA is not included.

Unprocessed bottles are ready for your own in-house cleaning and certification process. Boxed with chipboard dividers to help prevent breakage; overpack required for shipping.
