Complete guide: Ecotat Disposable Bio tray cartridge needles
The Bio Ecotat tray is a disposable consumable designed for organizing needle cartridges on the work station during a tattoo session. Each cartridge sits in its own slot, with the tip protected from contact with surrounding surfaces, keeping the work area tidy and reducing the risk of ink dripping or cross-contamination between cartridges. Made from paper pulp, plastic-free, it is designed as an eco-friendly alternative to classic disposable trays. It is suitable for any tattoo artist working with needle cartridges who wants a clean organization solution for each client.
How to use
- Place the tray on the work station, already covered with protective wrap, before starting the session.
- Fill the reservoir at the front of the tray with a little water to prevent the cartridges from drying out while not in use.
- Insert each needle cartridge into its individual slot, with the tip protected and in a stable, upright position.
- You can organize multiple cartridges simultaneously — up to five, according to the manufacturer — each with its own separate trough, useful when you need multiple needle configurations in the same session.
- During work, change cartridges directly from the tray, without placing them on the unprotected work surface.
- At the end of the session, lift the entire tray together with the used cartridges and dispose of it in one motion, according to your studio's waste protocol.
- Being single-use, do not disinfect it for reuse — it is used once, then discarded.
Tips from us
- Prepare the tray together with the rest of the disposables as part of the station setup for each new client.
- Add water to the reservoir just enough to keep the cartridges moist, not in excess — the tray is made of paper pulp and can lose rigidity if overly wet.
- Keep a separate tray for each client or session; do not reuse between clients.
- Check the tray dimensions (16.5 x 7.5 x 2 cm) against the available space on your work station, especially if organizing several cartridges at once.
- Dispose of the used tray according to your studio's waste disposal rules, together with other disposables that have come into contact with needles.
Warning: The tray is a single-use product: it is used once, for one client/one session, and should not be disinfected for reuse. After use, the tray has come into contact with needles, so it must be disposed of together with the used cartridges according to your studio's sharps waste protocol, not with regular household waste. Its use does not replace protective barriers (plastic wrap on the work surface, gloves, etc.), but complements them.
