4" ECO Funnel® with 38-430mm cap adapter for 38mm bottles

Is there odor in your lab? We can help.

ECO Funnel® is the ultimate solution for hazardous liquid waste collection in laboratories. This innovative screw-on safety funnel provides secure attachment to a specific waste container. It traps vapor inside the bottle, prevents the user from breathing hazardous fumes, minimizes the risk of lab fires, and reduces the environmental impact of waste chemicals. Experience convenience and peace of mind with the ECO Funnel.

Each model fits a specific container. This 4 inch ECO Funnel is designed to fit plastic bottles with a 38-430 closure or a glass jug with a GL38 or 38-439 closure. (Please note: when using on glass, gently secure the funnel without over-tightening to avoid damage to the blue screw cap.)

Beware of imposters! ECO Funnel is the original lab safety funnel, designed by CP Lab Safety in 1996 and made in the USA. Unlike other funnels with a lid, ECO Funnel's unique tube design, latching lid, and inner gasket keep waste fumes securely contained. The long tube extends into the waste container, minimizing chemical evaporation, even when the lid is open! Simply open the lid, pour in your waste solvent, and close the lid. Easy and reliable, ECO Funnel contributes to a safer lab.

ECO Funnel FAQ

Does the ECO Funnel® comply with regulations for emissions from open waste containers?
Yes. The primary function of the ECO Funnel is to reduce the emission of volatile solvents to near zero, while providing a convenient way to handle temporary waste in the lab.

Are there any chemicals that should be avoided when using the ECO Funnel®?
ECO Funnel is a pass-through mechanism which ensures compatibility with a wide range of solvents, including those suitable for long-term storage in glass only. Do not leave the funnel on the container for extended periods when the chemicals are not compatible with HDPE. It is best to avoid strong acids, bases and oxidizers that jeopardize polyethylene.

Can the ECO Funnel® be kept on the waste bottle 24 hrs a day?
We recommend that the ECO Funnel be removed from a waste container when not in use, just like any other funnel. They are for the collection of temporary waste only. Waste should be frequently transferred to a more permanent waste container for optimum safety.
