Caging & Accessories for Mice
Alternative Design Manufacturing offers a broad selection of plastic rodent caging systems for the housing of mice. Our selection of cage tops and bottoms are available in two quality plastic resins. One resin is polycarbonate (PC); the other is polysulfone in the Udel® brand (UD).
Polycarbonate (PC) is the least expensive. It is not recommended for autoclaving and yet is very durable.
PC is clear and offers excellent visibility.
Udel® (UD) is moderately priced and is suitable for most applications. It will not break down from exposure to very hot water and is autoclavable. The natural resin is light amber colored with excellent visibility that does not deteriorate. Alternative Design also offers Udel in low color(clear). Udel is our most demanded product and provides excellent value and dependable use for years. Udel is offered with a 2-year, pro-rated guarantee. Udel® is a registered trademark of Solvay Advanced Polymers LLC.
