Have you noticed? We no longer use Styrofoam peanuts as packaging material in your shipments.
We now primarily use unbleached, recycled, brown paper, a renewable resource that is kinder to our planet...and not so messy in your lab!

Think about it....

Why is it that when you transport something by car, it's called a shipment, but when you transport something by ship, it's called cargo?

________________
"Be faithful in small things because it is in them that your
strength lies."
"Do not wait for leaders; do it alone, person to person."
"Every time you smile at someone, it is an action of love, a
gift to that person, a beautiful thing."
"God doesn't require us to succeed; he only requires that you
try."
"Good works are links that form a chain of love."
"I am a little pencil in the hand of a writing God who is
sending a love letter to the world."
"I want you to be concerned about your next door neighbor. Do
you know your next door neighbor?"
"If we have no peace, it is because we have forgotten that we
belong to each other."
'If you can't feed a hundred people, then feed just one."
"If you judge people, you have no time to love them."
"In this life we cannot do great things. We can only do small
things with great love."
"It is impossible to walk rapidly and be unhappy."
"Joy is a net of love by which you can catch souls."
'Kind words can be short and easy to speak, but their echoes
are truly endless."
"Spread love everywhere you go. Let no one ever come to you
without leaving happier."
"We need to find God, and He cannot be found in noise and
restlessness. God is the friend of silence. See how nature - trees, flowers,
grass- grows in silence; see the stars, the moon and the sun, how they move in
silence...
We need silence to be able to touch souls."
