The Eco-friendly Medical Packaging

Medical packaging requires a unique design approach, due to sanitation standards and the new urgency to "go green" with all types of product packaging. In the article below are answers to FAQ about medical product packaging.

Are product packages made of sustainable, environmentally friendly materials more expensive?Ten years ago, the answer would have been yes, at least in reference to medical and highly-sterile packaging. However, over the last decade, packaging materials made from inexpensive but easily sustainable resources (like bamboo) have become more popular and hence much less expensive. In some cases, a company can actually save money by going with the green choice (particularly when you factor in efficiency and decreased waste). Generally, the cost of greener packaging choices is comparable to "non-green" Medical packaging choices. What is more important, a product package that is easy to open and dispose of, or a product package that is eco-friendly?In the medical industry, sanitation and saving human and animal life will come before effort to save the environment. However, every drop of damage to the environment affects human and animal wellness. Sometimes it's a fine line to walk. You do your best.

What do hospitals and clinics think about green packaging and minimizing packaging waste?Most medical facilities around the world are very much in favor of greener and more minimalistic product packaging. From a simple buying perspective, it means lower shipping costs, less onsite storage needed for recycling and garbage, and overall lower pricing.In regards to Medical packaging, is ease of use more important than sustainable materials?Hospitals in particular are strongly focused on increasing efficiency, and if that means that a nurse has to spend only 3 seconds opening a hypodermic needle as opposed to 15 seconds, that means a big savings on the bottom line. So, packaging made from sustainable materials must be as easy to use (or easier) than a traditional package, or hospital buyers just can't justify the cost.
