Can ProRax racks be cleaned at high temperatures?

Use chemical disinfection compatible with HMWPE. Repeated steam autoclaving is not recommended because HMWPE can soften or deform near autoclave temperatures.

What colors are available and what are the SKUs?

Red, Green, and Blue may be supplied from Canada. Current stock is zero; request availability.

Reduce Plate Tracking Errors — A Visual System for Your QC Program

ProRax can support a visible organizational convention defined in your laboratory's own SOP. It does not establish compliance or replace specimen identification.

FAQ — Lab Directors

How can a color-coded rack fit a documented workflow?

Your laboratory may define a color convention in its own SOP. ProRax does not establish compliance or replace required specimen identification.

Can we use ProRax in our existing SOPs?

Yes — ProRax racks are a passive organizational tool. Your SOP defines what each color represents. The racks themselves require no procedure validation beyond your standard equipment acceptance check.

Stop Hunting for Plates — Color-Code Your Bench in 5 Minutes

When a tech walks up mid-shift and can't instantly locate the right plate, that's lost time and a quality risk. ProRax makes the bench readable at a glance — color means something specific, so every technologist on every shift knows exactly where to look.
