Global Laboratory Plasticware Glassware Market to Reach $4.1 Billion by 2010 According to New Report by Global Industry Analy



Traditionally, glass has been the key material for majority of laboratory ware due to its extensive thermal and chemical resistance. However, over the years plastic has slowly but steadily made way into the laboratory settings due to a number of advantages. Primary among them is the safety from breakage while handling hazardous chemicals, radioactive substances, and carcinogens. Moreover, with the increasing use of hazardous materials in laboratories, leak proof plastic containers are widely considered to be the best storage products. The plastics industry is currently seeking new injection molding process innovations that can cut fabrication costs and improve product quality. Additionally, laboratory plasticwares are also very cheap and can be easily shaped into different forms.

United States is the largest laboratory glassware and plasticware market (http://www.strategyr.com/Laboratory_Glassware_and_Plasticware_Market_Report.asp) in the world and is projected to cross $1.7 billion by the year 2015. Laboratory glassware market (http://www.strategyr.com/Laboratory_Glassware_and_Plasticware_Market_Report.asp) in Asia-Pacific is forecast to grow at the fastest CAGR of 5.48% over the years 2011 through 2015.
