Sustainability at the Smart Membranes Lab

Our working group strongly advocates resource-efficient lab practices and wants to contribute to a more sustainable future in science. Therefore, we are incredibly proud to share that we have received a LEAF certificate for our efforts.

The Laboratory Efficiency Assessment Framework (in short LEAF) is a tool to assess sustainable laboratory practices which was developed at the University College London and is considered to have become the largest green lab certification program on international scale. Yet still our efforts will not stop here as we will continue to strive for highest standards because we consider sustainable lab practices as an important foundation for modern scientific achievements.
