PDCI Medical's signature SurgiKit™ is used today by both medical device start-ups and global corporations, and provides OEMs with affordable customizability while maintaining all the security and aesthetic appeal of thermoformed trays. Our skilled engineers have more than two decades of experience working directly with the clinical and surgical sectors and, subsequently, impart their hospital market sensibility into the designs that are produced for PDCI Medical's clientele.

The PDCI SurgiKit™ is a containment system for surgical and clinical devices and accessories used in the operating room and point-of-care applications. The system is comprised of one or multiple layers of medical grade sheeting which incorporates a series of customized apertures, creases and flaps to hold the components in place while the card itself is secured by unique features molded into a transparent bin.

Features and Benefits of SurgiKit™:

DESIGN: A highly experienced group of design engineers will evaluate your devices and quickly design and prototype a custom packaging solution at an affordable price.
SAFETY: Traditional pouching systems contain film layers that risk being punctured by sharp corners or burrs on the medical device. With the SurgiKit™ containment system, the thick wall of the thermoformed bin prevents such punctures and defects.
FUNCTIONALITY: The individual component layers can be removed one at a time, enabling staged removal and use of the packaged components. With the introduction of the third dimension in the bin, items can be held in place without the need for cumbersome clasps, restraining features and straps – a huge time-saver in an operating setting.
STERILE ENVIRONMENT: The SurgiKit™ is designed to preserve a sterile containment environment for packaged devices. This containment system can be removed from its outer Tyvek pouch in the surgical unit's "grey room", and then taken directly into the operating room. During surgery, the SurgiKit™ also serves as a convenient, non-contained bin providing quick and easy access to the devices and instruments.
SPECIAL APPLICATIONS: When used in conjunction with a pouch made from special barrier film materials, the SurgiKit™ containment system can be employed for sensitive applications requiring a dry, oxygen-free packaging environment.
TOLERANCES: Tight tolerances are difficult to achieve with thermoforming, making snap features either too tight or too loose. Both possibilities carry major risks in the event a part becomes dislodged or the lid opens too abruptly. Custom inserts can be consistently produced to tight tolerances, thus minimizing the risk associated with an ill-fitting enclosure system.
LOW COST: The combination of a customized fabricated card with a standard, off- the- shelf containment box results in a low cost but highly effective packaging system.

PDCI Medical also offers other design options where the SurgiKit™ may not be applicable:
INSERT ONLY: Insert and pouch combination may be used if a long and rigid device requires packaging - SurgiKit™ is optimal where parts are flexible and/or individual devices are of moderate length. The insert-only configuration may also be appropriate if the target end user market calls for low-budget goods.
MOLDED TRAY ONLY: SurgiKit™ is the preferred choice for multiple accessories that have a requirement for a high performance, compact containment system. However, if you have a single product, PDCI Medical also offers custom thermoformed boxes with Tyvek/film pouches.

From concept generation to full production, PDCI Medical solves the most challenging and complex of conversion requirements of a wide range of non-metallic materials and pressure sensitive adhesives - performing close tolerance laminating, slitting and die cutting of films and adhesives, foam, plastics, elastomers, membranes and paper, fabric and more.

The company also specializes in manufacturing custom components for applications in medical devices, drug delivery, wound care, patient monitoring and diagnostics.
