For more than 25 years, we’ve been partnering with medical device manufacturers to create the right labels for the toughest applications. We understand the unique demands of medical device packaging. We know how each sterilization process affects materials. And that’s why our customers repeatedly count on us to design, produce and convert labels that meet both regulatory and marketplace requirements – before and after sterilization. Our knowledge of substrates and materials is just one of the reasons our packaging components meet stringent medical specifications time after time, year after year.
Over those years, we’ve applied our knowledge and expertise to meet the device industry’s toughest certification requirements as well as each client’s own demanding needs. First article validation, incoming inspection, SPC sampling – any one of them can destroy a product’s development or manufacturing schedule. Our ‘Dock to Stock’ supplier certifications save customers time and money, eliminating incoming inspections and SPC validations. We take pride in saving tight schedules.
We’ll engineer the right label for your particular applications. By addressing your specifications and understanding the even bigger picture, we can minimize your total applied costs and deliver consistent results. Every time.
A Fortune 100 medical device company asked us to develop specialized labeling for their new autoclavable heart valve package. That package had to survive autoclave sterilization’s extreme temperature and 100% humidity. To meet those and other challenging requirements, our design engineers incorporated a lineup of materials, each selected for a particular characteristic: Paper, Tyvek¨, clear polypropylene, PET and a removable vinyl. As their full-service partner, we worked with our customer’s packaging engineers to develop a new tamper-evident label so gloved OR staff can easily, efficiently open the package. With several prototypes to help in the customer’s final design selection, the chosen package was successfully introduced to the market. On-time delivery of all these products was assured through a min/max inventory program that utilized an EDI ordering system.
