Technical Narrative

The Caplugs® Evergreen 240-9950-W3L is a 900 mL wide-mouth specimen container molded from virgin Polypropylene (PP) with a white PP screw cap. 900 mL is the top-volume format in the Caplugs® Evergreen screw-cap wide-mouth range — the definitive choice for high-output 24-hour urine protocols, polyuria patients, and bulk specimen archiving where no other single container is sufficient. The 120 × 138 mm (D × H) footprint is the largest standard wide-mouth specimen container format in clinical use. The white cap enables universal neutral closure — white provides maximum label-contrast for adhesive and barcode labels across any specimen-type workflow. White cap is the preferred selection for laboratories using barcode-based specimen identification where cap color is secondary to label readability. Supplied unassembled 24/Bag — apply barcode or specimen labels to containers before capping for LIS-integrated workflows.

Virgin PP delivers autoclave compatibility at 121°C for decontamination before disposal, IATA P650-compliant leak-free screw-cap sealing, and dimensional stability from -20°C to +121°C. The 120 mm wide-mouth opening accommodates direct patient self-collection and large gross tissue submission without secondary transfer. Natural PP body allows direct visual specimen volume assessment throughout pre-analytical handling.

At $71.76 per 24/Bag — $2.9898 per container — the completes the White cap Caplugs® Evergreen wide-mouth specimen container range alongside: 240-9250-W3L (250 mL / 90×65 mm, $62.59/Bag); 240-9400-W3L (400 mL / 90×100 mm, $54.03/Bag); 240-9500-W3L (500 mL / 90×125 mm, $43.19/Bag); 240-9750-W3L (750 mL / 120×97 mm, $31.67/Bag) — enabling matched single-vendor procurement across all collection volumes.

Frequently Asked Questions — Caplugs® Evergreen

Is the 900 mL container suitable for 24-hour urine collection?

900 mL is the top-volume format in the Caplugs® Evergreen screw-cap wide-mouth range — the definitive choice for high-output 24-hour urine protocols, polyuria patients, and bulk specimen archiving where no other single container is sufficient. For patients with polyuria or high fluid intake, the 900 mL format is the definitive single-container choice for extreme-output protocols. Always instruct patients to transfer all output into the container throughout the collection period.

Are the containers and caps assembled or separate in the Bag?

Supplied unassembled — 24 containers and 24 white PP screw caps packed separately in the same Bag. Thread caps finger-tight before specimen collection or transport. The unassembled format allows pre-labeling, barcode printing, or ink-jet identification before capping in LIS-integrated centralized processing workflows.

Are the containers BPA-free and autoclave-compatible?

Yes to both. The PP container body and white PP screw cap contain no BPA and no phthalate plasticizers. PP is autoclave-compatible at 121°C / 15 psi — leave the cap loose or off during autoclaving to prevent pressure build-up.
