To: Customers purchasing Bacticount Dipslides

It is our intention to change the Manufacturing Process of the products listed below. The details of the change and the reason for it are given below.

If you have any difficulties or concerns accepting the change, please contact us immediately.

Product: Bacticount Dipslides

Proposed Change Date: Dipslides manufactured June 2022 onwards

Change Details:

Bacticount Dipslides will no longer include a cap.

Reason for Change:

We have been informed by Dimanco, the manufacturer of dipslides, that the plastic caps will no longer be included with Bacticount Dipslides.

The rising costs of plastics raw materials and consideration of the environmental benefits, including reduction of carbon footprint, to not including caps with these products are the key reasons for this change.

Considerations:

There is no change to the standard 6 month shelf life of the products; however extended shelf life to 9 months will no longer be possible.

Conclusion

There is no effect on the quality of the products. The caps have been an aesthetic addition to the slides.
