Polypropylene, raised graduations, autoclavable. One beaker of each size.
The point of a graduated set is that you stop pouring between vessels. A 50ml measurement goes in the 50ml beaker where the scale is fine enough to read; a litre goes in the litre beaker. Five sizes covers everything a school practical asks for.
Plastic, not glass, and that is a deliberate trade-off. Polypropylene will not shatter, which matters with younger students and in a wet room. It also cannot go on a flame - so this is the set for measuring, mixing and pouring, and the borosilicate beakers are the set for heating.
Raised graduations rather than printed. Moulded into the wall, so they cannot rub off in a dishwasher or an autoclave.
Good chemical resistance and clear enough to see a colour change through. One set per bench.
