Three packs that look the same

Nylon, PTFE, and MCE can look identical in a product photo. So can 0.22 and 0.45. The difference has to live on the label, not in the thumbnail.

The photo of a syringe filter is a white disc in a plastic housing. Nylon, PTFE, and MCE can look the same in that photo. So can 0.22 and 0.45. The difference is in the title, and in the option you select, not in the thumbnail.

That is why a listing here spends its title on membrane, pore, diameter, and pack size. A drawer has the same problem later. The next person should not have to open three packs to find out which one they are holding.

If you are labeling a drawer from an order, copy four lines from the listing onto the label: membrane, pore, diameter, and how many pieces were in the pack. The product photo will not do that job in a month.

The longer version of this is on the About page. The short version is the shop itself: compare the four lines before the packs are in the same drawer.
