Eppendorf's worldwide rewards programme gives customers the chance to collect EP-points with every qualifying product, plus extra points for special offers
Points can be redeemed via the on-line rewards shop for a wide range of Eppendorf products, useful lab items, or leisure, sport and fun gifts.
Since its introduction, the rewards programme has been made available in 62 countries, with EP-points stickers placed in the packaging of Eppendorf tubes, pipette tips, pipettes and microarrays.
The EP-points internet shop offers a constantly updated choice of rewards, such as an MP3 player, a stylish notebook backpack, a subscription to Nature or a selection of Eppendorf products - all delivered free of charge.
Albrecht Wiener, Eppendorf UK managing director, comments, "Now in its third year, the EP-points scheme rewards everyone who uses Eppendorf products in their daily lab work.
"As an extra incentive, new customers opening an EP-points account will receive 50 points just for registering as well as having the chance to win one of 50 Amazon vouchers worth £35.
"From time to time we have additional offers: for example, between 1 April and 30 June anyone purchasing a special centrifuge 5702/5702 R bonus pack as part of our Advantage promotion will be able to claim 100 extra EP-points.
"So, it's a good time to start collecting".
