Packaging developed for medical device and pharmaceuticals application often is driven by the need to ensure the product will make it safely to the patient and rapid development time. For these two reasons, often the packages are not fully optimized. Based on Stress Engineering Services’ experiences and a survey of the market, the packaging often uses 30+% more material than required. By adopting strategies from other industries that have a sharper focus on costs, the medical device and pharmaceuticals industry can take advantage of proven technologies and supply chains to reduce material content and cost and achieve sustainability goals without comprising patient safety.
