Imagine the environmental impact if every practice would stop sending more than 4,000 single use single-use plastic air/water syringe tips to landfills each year. Hager Worldwide did, and the result is its Duration air/water syringe tips that offer high performance and have an excellent spray pattern with multiport air ports.

In addition, the tips have the following features:

Stainless-steel (made of medical grade stainless steel)
Eliminate wastes (say no to single-use air/water syringe tips)
Save the average practice more than $4,000 over a 5-year period with Duration vs. cost of disposables.

Thus, over those five years, the average practice (with 4.1 operatories) will use 21,530 single-use plastic tips, at 21 cents apiece. That comes out to US$4,438.81.

Meanwhile, if over that same period of time that average practice would instead use Duration, the cost would be just US$146.78 — a savings of nearly US$4,300! And that’s to say nothing of the landfill space saved worldwide.

In addition, Duration is backed by a five-year warranty, and a percentage of Duration sales is donated to the World Wildlife Fund.
