Product Timelines 1/16/2023
Happy 2023 all! As always our core values is to be fully transparent to our community. In an effort to do that, we’re going to be releasing monthly blog posts where we show the progress of each of our products. Some changes from last month, we are trying our best to make sure everything we make is of a high quality, and with that does take some time.
In-Stock Products:
- Snap Cap Vials – Are now live!
- Swiss Style Forceps – Working on featherweights next.
Our first batch of insect pins are now in stock, we do have a lot of inventory stuck in customs.
Our first batch of unit trays is here! We opted for an impressively sturdy design, with an option of EPE and EVA foams. We’re getting plastazote foam boxes in the near future (February or March).
We also made our first limited supply batch of Metal pinning blocks! Beautifully crafted with rounded edges and anti-slide felt on the bottom. The perfect addition to any serious collectors arsenal that will last a lifetime!
We also introduced our wood pinning block, made out of eco-friendly paulownia wood.

Hi David,
We appreciate your comment!
You can find the answers to your questions below:
1) 80% (or higher concentrates) ethyl alcohol in various quantities,
We have not determined if we will be stocking ethyl alcohol in the near future.
2) screw cap vials with poly-seal linings of various sizes in flexible quantities
We are working on stocking these by Summer 2023.
3) storage boxes for previously mentioned vials,
In tandem with screw cap vials, another Summer 2023 product.
4) archival label paper, and
We currently have 24 lb. archival paper and will be stocking a heavy paper in the next few months.
The 24 lb. paper can be found here: https://ecologysupplies.com/products/archival-label-paper/
