KNAUER Pipetting Solutions combine ergonomic design, precision engineering, and high-quality consumables to support reliable liquid handling workflows in analytical, biological, and routine laboratory applications. The portfolio includes BlueOrchid micropipettes, premium pipette tips, reload systems, and sustainable rack boxes designed to deliver maximum accuracy, user comfort, and workflow efficiency.
BlueOrchid Pipettes
KNAUER BlueOrchid pipettes are designed for effortless daily pipetting with reduced hand strain and reliable long-term performance. The lightweight and balanced construction, combined with a silicone-based shock absorption mechanism and magnet-assisted piston system, minimizes pipetting and tip ejection forces for fatigue-free operation.
The pipettes feature intuitive one-handed volume adjustment with a secure locking mechanism and a large 4-digit display for easy readability. All models are ISO 8655-6 calibrated to ensure high accuracy and precision.
Available single-channel volume ranges include:
- 0.1–2.5 µL
- 0.5–10 µL
- 2–20 µL
- 5–50 µL
- 10–100 µL
- 20–200 µL
- 100–1,000 µL
- 500–5,000 µL
- 1,000–10,000 µL
- Fixed-volume 150 µL model

Pipette Tips
KNAUER pipette tips are manufactured in Germany from high-quality medical-grade virgin polypropylene to ensure contamination-free and highly reproducible pipetting. The product range includes eight tip sizes from 10 µL to 10 mL, including extra-long 10 µL tips optimized for recovery of very small sample volumes.
KNAUER: Pipette Tips
The tips are designed with optimized cone geometry for secure pipette fitting and low-force attachment and ejection. A conical tip opening and ultra-smooth internal surface reduce droplet formation and minimize sample retention.
Key advantages:
- Free of DNase, RNase, human DNA, pyrogens, and PCR inhibitors
- Autoclavable and non-wettable
- US FDA-approved virgin polypropylene
- Universal compatibility with major pipette brands
- Graduation marks for rapid volume verification
- Available in bulk bags or reload systems
- Yellow and blue versions available for selected tip sizes
Available packaging options:
- Bulk bags for economical refilling

Reload Systems
KNAUER reload systems are designed to simplify laboratory workflows while reducing environmental impact. Reloads are available for 10 µL, 200 µL, and 1,000 µL pipette tips and allow quick replacement of empty rack inserts with minimal handling effort.
Advantages of reload systems:
- One-handed reload operation
- Reduced plastic consumption
- Space-saving storage
- Color-coded rack inserts for quick identification
- Optimized for routine high-throughput workflows
Rack Boxes
KNAUER rack boxes provide secure and sustainable storage for pipette tips. The boxes are manufactured from 100% recycled plastic sourced from pipette tip production and are fully autoclavable.
The stackable design allows safe and space-efficient storage, while the easy-open lid and color-coded rack inserts improve laboratory organization and workflow efficiency.
