Why Use Eclipse?
The Patented Eclipse™ Pipette refill system is different than other refills what use much more plastic. And Eclipse™ was designed from the beginning to be more easily recycled.
Eclipse™ refills use a Patented ultra-thin wafer to deliver the refill. So you always use less.
Other brands, even those using "bio-based" resins use more plastic so generate more waste.

The product labels are not found on the product, but are published in an online database. Most of the 27 styles of Eclipse™ refills carry ACT® environmental factor labels.
