Petri Plates Or Dishes

Petri plates and dishes support microbiology, sample preparation, culture observation and routine laboratory handling across research, clinical, food, environmental and industrial laboratories. John Morris Group supplies Petri dishes through our Laboratory portfolio, with visible category support from Kinesis and Labfriend for laboratories needing dependable consumables and practical procurement support.

The visible range includes Chemware PFA Petri dishes, Greiner Bio-One polystyrene Petri dishes with vents, and Schuett-Biotec PETRITURN accessories for controlled plate handling. These products are suited to Life Science and Diagnostics, Food and Feed, environmental testing, education and quality-control laboratories needing the right dish format for plating, observation, incubation and sample organisation.

Choosing Petri Plates And Dishes For Laboratory Workflows

Choosing Petri plates and dishes starts with the material, diameter, height, sterility requirement, venting format and whether the dish will be used for culture work, sample containment, evaporation or plate handling. The visible product range includes PFA autoclavable dishes, polystyrene vented Petri dishes and supporting Petri dish turntable components for laboratories managing repeatable plating and observation workflows.

  • PFA Petri Dishes: Suitable for chemical-resistant, autoclavable use where durable fluoropolymer construction is required.
  • Polystyrene Petri Dishes: Practical for routine microbiology, culture observation and disposable laboratory workflows.
  • Vented Formats: Help support gas exchange and condensation management during culture and incubation workflows.
  • Large Pack Options: Support bulk procurement for laboratories handling higher daily plate usage.
  • Petri Dish Turntables: Assist controlled plate rotation for plating and sample handling processes.

Material And Format Considerations

PFA Petri dishes are useful where autoclavability, chemical resistance and reuse are required, while polystyrene Petri dishes are commonly selected for routine sample observation and microbiology workflows. Procurement teams should also check whether the application needs sterile or non-sterile supply, vented lids, defined dimensions such as 95 x 20 mm or 145 x 20 mm, and compatibility with incubation or plate pouring processes.

Related Laboratory Consumables And Equipment

Petri plates and dishes are often purchased alongside culture tubes, microbiology inoculation loops or needles and broader laboratory supplies and fixtures. These related categories help laboratories build a practical workflow for culture preparation, transfer, incubation, inspection and storage.
