Do I need IVD?
Since May 2022, the EU IVD Regulation (IVDR) 2017/746 replaces the IVD Directive 98/79/EC under which a variety of Eppendorf products were registered as IVD products. The new IVDR, and resulting recommendations from leading European Life Science Organizations, provide more clarity on product types that may be classified as in-vitro diagnostic medical devices, which has led to some changes in our IVD product portfolio.
Eppendorf continues to offer centrifuges in two versions: An EU-IVD compliant version for diagnostic applications (affixed with the CE IVD mark according to the EU In Vitro Diagnostics Regulation (IVDR) 2017/746), and a General Lab Product version for research applications.
Eppendorf pipettes, pipette tips and tubes affixed with the CE IVD mark are discontinued in May 2022. To ensure that you can keep working with our products in IVD applications, the intended use of our "General Lab Product" pipettes, pipette tips and tubes has been changed however: Eppendorf pipettes, pipette tips and tubes without CE IVD mark are now suitable for all general laboratory applications including IVD applications and can be purchased and used as such since January 2022 (in the EU and EFTA countries).

Packaging disposal and recycling
In the lab, recycling is becoming more and more important every day. Remarkably, nearly all cardboard material is recycled in Europe. With this in mind, we have developed centrifuge packaging that consists of ca. 50 % recyclable cardboard material. We encourage all our customers to support the global sustainability initiative by collecting all cardboard packaging material and disposing of it in the appropriate collection container at their organization.
The packaging of our 5418R also contains other materials, including a wooden pallet, plastic dust cover made of LD-PE, and some foam parts. With the plastic dust cover and foam parts, we recommend selecting a dedicated recycling partner where PE material can be recycled. You can contact your local waste hauler or facility management team to understand the available recycling options for your organization.

Instrument disposal
Our Centrifuge 5418 R lasts for many years, but if it needs to be replaced, we kindly ask you to fulfill your local product disposal requirements. We strongly recommend a certified local recycling partner with experience in instruments with active cooling. Keeping it “local“ reduces the impact of transportation, and the "certified" aspect is recommended to ensure the safe and sustainable removal and recycling of the cooling liquids use in 5418R.
Decontamination
As microcentrifuges are often placed in lab environments and are used to handle biological samples, you should decontaminate Centrifuge 5418 R before disposal. For information on local decontamination requirements, contact your local biosafety officer and/ or waste officer. When disposing your centrifuge, you should also check if your local recycling partner has special instructions and/ or documentation requirements. The Eppendorf decontamination form sheet can be used as guidance for this.
