TAKO since 1979 | Malaysia ISO 9001 & 13485 Quality Assurance Medical Device Packagings

It is undeniable that packaging of medical devices plays a critical role in the safety, sterility, and accessibility of such products that improve health outcomes. Since 1979, TAKO has grown into a leading provider of quality and reliable packages within Malaysia and internationally. Its commitment to ensuring quality is substantiated through ISO 9001 and ISO 13485 certifications, assuring quality standards in packaging materials and processes. In this blog, we will look at how the medical device solution from TAKO can respond to various industrial demands pertaining to withstanding physical extremes, maintaining sterility, ensuring usability, and promoting eco-friendliness within Class 5 cleanroom environments.

Sterility and the Importance of Medical Device Packaging

Sterility in medical devices is CRUCIAL. Improperly packaged medical equipment packaging will result in the contamination of devices, which may risk the lives of patients. TAKO’s solutions are designed to maintain sterility throughout the supply chain, from manufacturing to the point of use. With the aid of advanced sterilisation indicators, TAKO ensures its solutions effectively safeguard medical devices against microbial contamination.

Physical Extremes Resistance in Packaging

    Medical equipments are very vulnerable to various environmental conditions, such as temperature levels and physical impacts, during storage and transportation. The packaging made by TAKO is designed to resist such physical extremes to maintain the integrity of the device. High-quality materials provide temperature, pressure, and moisture resistance to damage for the enclosed devices.

    Packaging solutions from Tako are also designed in such a way as to be puncture-resistant and thus stand up well to the tough conditions of transit. This reduces the breakage of fragile medical instruments during shipment. It is really important for these kinds of devices which need to make long-distance journeys across different climates. With the ability to supply solutions that can withstand extreme physical conditions, the risk of damage to products while en route is minimised for TAKO. The equipment reach healthcare providers and patients in good condition.

    One key feature of the packaging solution from TAKO is the processing, which is made in ISO Class 5 cleanrooms. A cleanroom is an environment necessary for industries that require high-level control over contamination-for example, within the manufacturing process of medical equipments. ISO Class 5 refers to the environment where the number of airborne particles can be restricted, which ensures that the packaging will be free from contaminants that could affect the sterility of medical devices.

    Cleanrooms at TAKO follow all rigid regulations and controls of an ISO Class 5 environment, closely monitored to international standards. The company is committed to maintaining such a clean environment, ensuring its solutions come out with the utmost level of sterility and quality possible. It ensures such a level of control that, regardless of the external condition and circumstance, the equipments will always be safe to use.

    Easy-to-Open Packaging for Better Accessibility

This is why the company develops durable yet easy opening of solutions that limits the damages during handling while the professional accessing the equipment exerts the least effort.
