We located a supplier for what are often referred to as 'Stewart Boxes' in the UK which are made of polystyrene (not in the foam coffee cup form, but brittle clear plastic). They are OK for small/light things and we use them extensively for shells, small bones, teeth. They are clear so you don't have to open containers to read labels or check specimens. They are cheap (cheaper than Stewarts, and cheaper in bulk than most card trays) and supplied by Rubox in the Netherlands (http://www.rubox.nl): Rubox B.V., Schotlandlaan 22, 2391 PP Hazerswoude, Netherlands Tel. +35- 172 - 52 00 01 (Their website is no use and their Facebook page is little better). These boxes also stack, allowing double layering in drawers if you are tight for space.

Subject: Boxes with clear lids
Hello,
I'm looking for a supplier for those acid free card boxes with clear lids, and can't seem to find it. Could anyone help me? Have checked PEL, CBD etc, unless I've missed them somehow.
On this note, could a list of suppliers be a useful thing on the NATSCA resources page?
Thanks a lot,
Luanne
