Redefining sample preparation with advanced microwave labstations

Milestone, a global leader in microwave sample preparation, is proud to announce the launch of the ETHOS Microwave Labstation and the ultraWAVE 2 eco.

With ETHOS, Milestone introduces the latest and most advanced evolution of microwave rotor-base digestion technology. Designed to meet the highest standards in laboratory safety, reproducibility, and efficiency, ETHOS goes beyond digestion to become a true microwave labstation, supporting solvent extraction, evaporation, concentration, high-temperature processes, and more.

ETHOS features rugged stainless-steel construction, pressure-responsive door and SafeVIEW camera monitoring. Its high-purity PTFE vessels and reinforced PEEK components ensure maximum safety and chemical compatibility.

With MAIA, Milestone’s AI Agent, users receive instant guidance on methods, maintenance, troubleshooting, and consumable handling, via chat or voice commands.

ETHOS represents the ultimate combination of performance, safety, versatility, and sustainability, empowering laboratories for advance elemental analysis.

ultraWAVE 2 eco is a new Single Reaction Chamber (SRC) microwave digestion system that brings the core advantages of SRC technology to routine and regulated laboratories.

Building on the success of Milestone’s flagship ultraWAVE series, the ultraWAVE 2 eco redefines digestion efficiency and sustainability. By digesting all samples together in one PTFE-lined stainless-steel chamber under uniform temperature and pressure, the system ensures complete, reproducible digestions across all matrices, from food and environmental samples to pharma, polymers, and more.

By minimising resource use and enabling sustainable lab practices, the ultraWAVE 2 eco exemplifies Milestone’s commitment to Green Digestion. Laboratories can also access and optimise their sustainability using the integrated Green Prep MW Score tool.
