[Nhcoll-l] supplier Northeast Natural History: Rigid Paper Trays

[Jay R Cordeiro]

Hello, Carmen


Here at Northeast Natural History & Supply, our specimen boxes are custom-manufactured, rigid, unbuffered, and acid-free with neutral pH.  They come pre-assembled (not flat and self-folding), overwrapped, and are constructed of glazed white corrugated cardboard.  Trays align neatly in straight rows to facilitate long-term storage and preservation.  Trays can be lined with plastazote or ethafoam, unbleached cotton, or polyester batting for use with delicate specimens.  Lids are optionally available for better protection from ambient environment damage and use in layered storage.



We can make virtually ANY SIZE you want including matching existing sizes you might already have.  I just need outside dimensions and quantity of each size to provide you with a quote.  However, we require a minimum of 100 per size.



If you think you only need a small assortment and would like to try us out, we also offer sample kits of 120 or 240 pieces each with various sizes included. Otherwise, contact me j.cordeiro at nenaturalhistory.com for a quote.




I think you will find our prices competitive and we take pride in the quality of our product.  Please let me know if you require anything else.  I can send images or samples upon request.


Thanks

[EXTERNAL SENDER]

Hello all,



I’m looking for a vendor/manufacturer to create small rigid paper trays that we use to house rock/mineral/fossil samples in storage (see photo).  Our previous vendor is no longer in business, and the vendor that makes our trays in larger sizes does not make them this small (80mm x 60mm x 20mm).  I’m having a hard time searching online for a company that can do this work.  Does anyone have any vendors for trays like this that they can share?  I would preferably like to find a Canadian vendor, given our location, but a US vendor would work as well.
