Arctic White adhesive and thermal sealing films and foils provide reliable well-by-well closure for microplates across the full spectrum of laboratory applications — from room-temperature sample storage to cryogenic archiving, PCR thermal cycling, and evaporation-sensitive compound management workflows.
Adhesive films provide instant, pressure-sensitive sealing without heat equipment, making them ideal for fast sample protection in manual and semi-automated environments. Aluminum foil seals provide a complete vapor and light barrier for light-sensitive compounds and cryogenic storage at -80°C and below. Heat-seal foils bond directly to polypropylene and polystyrene plate surfaces using a heat sealer, creating a tamper-evident, evaporation-proof closure that withstands centrifugation and automated handling.
Sealing films are compatible with all standard 96-well and 384-well SBS-format plates, and are available in a range of materials including clear polyester (for visual inspection), aluminum foil (for compound storage and light-sensitive assays), and pierceable foil (for automated liquid handlers with needles that penetrate seals without manual removal). ArctiSeal branded mats, films, and closures are engineered for lot-to-lot consistency, ensuring reliable seal integrity across automated sealing systems from ABgene, Agilent, Brooks, and other platform vendors.
