RESOLUTE SINGLE POUCH PACKAGING FOR DRUG ELUTING-STENT
Company: Medtronic Cardiovascular Country: USA
National Competition: United States of America, AmeriStar
Innovative single-pouch packaging offers significant cost savings in materials, labour and storage, and 50% waste reduction with its competitive 46%
smaller size, while providing outstanding product protection and improved accessibility. Medtronic has redesigned its drug-eluting stent packaging by
converting the two-pouch configuration into one pocketed pouch, boosting customer accessibility. This Tyvek-foil pouch permits sterilisation and
provides excellent moisture/oxygen barriers to preserve drug shelf life. Additionally, a coiled dispenser (hoop) featuring removable tubing has enhanced the manufacturing process.

The former EPS bottom is replaced with fibre which makes the box significantly smaller. The number of pallets from the packaging
manufacturer to the customer is more than halved. The packaging stands out as an example of well-functioning solutions which can be improved. The box is also less in the folded state and in addition, the trade into a
mono-material in the shop. This packaging feature is particularly friendly in the environment. In Norway we have above 95 per cent recycling of the fibre from corrugated board. EPS produce more Co2. The solution has lower transport costs and is better for the sustainability.
