A pouch seal failure can be a matter of life or death. Our mission is to elevate awareness and create a healthcare packaging culture where packaging supports safer patient outcomes. Join us in protecting the sterile delivery of medical devices.
Hospital integration of smarter packaging systems
Daily testing to assure sterile barrier quality
Protocols for medical pouch sealing repeatability
Best practices and training for healthcare packaging
Patient infections in hospitals are the unspoken healthcare epidemic affecting an estimated 687,000 infections and 72,000 deaths each year. Globally, roughly 1 in 10 patients acquires an HAI during care. Watch our short video and hear our story.
Hawo and Van der Stähl Scientific have collaborated to turn Hospitals Blue with our industry leading medical pouch sealers. The SterileAware® “Medical device packaging improvement project” aims to replace the inadequate low-tech medical pouch sealers that could risk the sterility of surgical devices.
Straight seals from roll‑stock pouches can be difficult for clinicians to open safely. That’s why we developed the patent‑pending MD‑8500‑C, a system that forms chevron‑shaped seals for improved access and safer Clinical presentation.
We believe when business approaches a cause with determined corporate might, yet guided with the heart of a non-profit, great things will happen. The SterileAware® hybrid is about bringing to the market healthcare packaging machine technology and packaging testing systems, watch as our mission grows.
SterileAware® will recognize amazing contributions in healthcare with our “Superstars in Sterile Awareness award®” and our “Superstars in Sterile Packaging award®. Each year we celebrate stellar technology and the individuals that shape the growth of medical device packaging and sterile awareness.
Self‑sealing pouches often fail because proper pressure is rarely applied evenly by hand. In busy hospital settings, rushed technique and inconsistent force can leave weak spots or channels, making sterile barrier failure far more likely. With our SPD-S we mechanize the process for repeatable seals.
It is the technology inside medical packaging equipment that makes the difference. The ‘SterileAware™ Inside’ label tells medical device manufacturers that the labeled pouch sealer includes features that supports validation so their device can be delivered sterile to the patient.
SPOT Radio delivers sharp, insightful conversations at the intersection of medical packaging, patient safety, and innovation. Each episode brings expert voices, real‑world challenges, and forward‑thinking solutions that help professionals elevate their sterile packaging programs.
