[Histonet] Sekura Tissue Tek Block Storage

[Sheila Haas]

As we reuse block file drawers, we run a piece of bold colored tape (as wide as the front of the drawer) across
the front. We use a different color for each year which helps quickly distinguish one year from the next when pulling or filing blocks. Works very well here and is inexpensive.
 
Good luck.

> Hello Histonet,
> 
> First time poster. My institution has a 25 year retention on paraffin blocks. The 1989 batch was just destroyed and the storage containers were returned to me. They appear to be the same size as the current sekura tissue block storage units we use. Does anyone know of a commercially available label overlay for the drawers? I could cut down adhesive labels, but wanted to see what was out there on the market.
