Accord Healthcare introduces new medical application for rheumatoid arthritis patients
A new product based on an idea from Accord Healthcare that was realised in close collaboration with Orange Plastics
An indispensable link in the Dutch healthcare chain, that is what characterises Accord Healthcare. Their mission is to work with hospitals, pharmacies, wholesalers and other healthcare stakeholders to ensure the vital supply of life-saving medicines to patients.Like Orange Plastics, Accord Healthcare has an excellent reputation for delivering customization and quality. It is crucial for Accord to remain aware of its vulnerable role in the healthcare sector by only doing business with trusted partners who can meet the organization’s high integrity standards.
Accord found a like-minded partner in the Orange Plastics team, who managed to convert its unique idea into a tangible product in a short time. Thanks in part to years of experience manufacturing plastic medical products, the specialists at Orange Plastics understood the requirements at a glance and were able to quickly provide Accord Healthcare’s stakeholders with sound advice and a production plan.
Together on the way to a rewarding end product for rheumatism patients.
Together, the professionals from both organizations devised an aid tool that helps rheumatism patients remove the cap from a syringe without having to use much force.
The patient places a syringe in its entirety into the slot in the plastic box and positions the syringe so that the cap of the syringe hangs behind a raised edge of the box. By then gently pulling on the syringe, the cap falls off the needle and the syringe is ready for use.
For many rheumatoid patients, this is a useful solution that helps them inject medication. The plastic box is made of Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene (ABS), a type of plastic often used in the production of housings for electronics and medical equipment.
Some examples of medical products to which Orange Plastics has made a significant contribution include blood collection tubes (HemCol), a monitoring system for pregnant women, a monitoring system for pregnant women, and laboratory kits for microscope supplies.
We also had the Accord logo printed on the product at the customer’s request. There are countless possibilities in finishes and prints, Orange Plastics is happy to help you get started.
