What Is the Insect Storage Box Used For?
A dry insect collection is kept by mounting each specimen on an entomological pin and pressing the pin into a soft layer, so the insects stand clear of the floor and of each other. Here both the lid and the base carry 8 mm EVA (ethylene-vinyl acetate) sheet, giving two pinning surfaces, while the white art-paper lining makes specimens and their data labels easy to see. The box suits school and college zoology lab equipment collections, class 11 biology work on the animal kingdom where insects represent the arthropods, entomology and agricultural courses that build pest-identification sets, and small museum or reference collections.
Dry specimens are attacked by small pests such as museum beetles, so put a suitable insecticide in the holes of the raised inner wall and renew it from time to time, keep the lid closed, and store the box flat in a dry place out of direct sunlight. Use the index card holder on the outside to label the contents, and the larger 53 x 45 x 9 cm size for big specimens or a whole teaching set.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can insects be pinned in both the lid and the base?
Yes. The top and bottom insides are both lined with 8 mm thick EVA sheet, so specimens can be pinned on either side and the box holds two layers when closed.
Which sizes are available?
Four: 53 x 45 x 9 cm, 45 x 30 x 7.5 cm, 38 x 25 x 7.5 cm and 30 x 23 x 7.5 cm. State the size, or sizes, in your enquiry.
How does the box keep pests out?
A raised wooden wall inside the bottom has holes for insecticide, and the box is designed to close airtight and pest proof. Renew the insecticide periodically and keep the box closed when not in use.
What is the box made of?
A teakwood frame with a sunmica laminate top and plywood bottom, finished in lacquer polish, with a white art-paper interior, brass hinges, an index card holder and clips.
How does this differ from the other Insect Storage Box listing?
The other listing describes the same construction but gives no sizes. This listing states the four sizes, so quote one of them for either listing.
Are entomological pins or insecticide included?
They are not mentioned in this listing, which describes the box and its fittings. Ask JLab if you want pins or other collecting supplies quoted with the boxes.
What details are needed for an export quotation?
The sizes and quantities, destination country and port or city, delivery terms such as FOB or CIF, any packing or labelling needs, and a tender reference if applicable.
Who manufactures this insect storage box?
Jain Laboratory Instruments Pvt Ltd, trading as JLab, makes it at its works in Ambala, Haryana, India, and quotes for it as the manufacturer.
OEM Manufacturer
JLab is the trading name of Jain Laboratory Instruments Pvt Ltd, a biology lab equipment manufacturer in India, incorporated in 2017 and based on Hargolal Road, Ambala, Haryana. The storage boxes are built in JLab’s own works from teakwood, laminate and plywood rather than bought from a trader, so schools, colleges, museums, dealers and importers buy direct; each box is visually inspected before dispatch, and repeat orders in matching sizes come from the same workshop. JLab is registered under MSME Udyam registration UDYAM-HR-01-0003849 as a manufacturing enterprise and exports under Importer-Exporter Code 3317504552. It ships to buyers in every region — for example Tajikistan in Central Asia, Sri Lanka in South Asia, the USA in North America, Burkina Faso in West Africa and Lesotho in Southern Africa. Tender buyers can see the JLab lab tenders page.
