Polymicro Technologies LLC Releases Smaller Spools

Phoenix, Arizona, USA, Mar 8, 2004 – Polymicro Technologies, LLC announced today a new packaging format for many of their popular capillary tubing products. These Styrofoam spools are smaller and lighter to provide reduced shipping and handling costs. The new spools, to be used for shipments of 50 meters or less, are only 7 inches in diameter by 2 inches thick. This smaller footprint will allow customers to minimize storage requirements. Flange labeling has been added, making it easier to locate the desired product when stacked with other spools. Expect to see these new spools in your laboratory soon. The traditional, larger spools will still be used for high volume shipments.
