Subject: Polyester sleeves for microscope slides
I am looking to acquire polyester sleeves for the storage of microscope slides. Previously we purchased them from Preservation Equipment Ltd, however they no longer provide this item and I am struggling at finding them anywhere. The sleeves themselves are made from clear, heavy duty polyester film measuring 7.1cm length by 3.3cm width. The sleeve is made of one piece of polyester that has been heat formed at the top and bottom folds, creating a flap where the two ends meet. It is not unlike the 35mm slide sleeves you can get, however for microscope slides instead. Any suggestions of suppliers who provide this or may be interested in making them would be greatly appreciated.
