MINNEAPOLIS,
June 23, 2004 - Package
Testing Expert, DDL, is debuting its new Pack-Advice(SM) Service
Pledge at Medical Alley's® MedEdge(TM) International Conference,
June 23-25, 2004.
The DDL Pack-Advice
Service Pledge is the best way for companies that outsource to
package testing providers, to gain the most value for their testing
dollars. The Pack-Advice pledge offers zero-cost package consulting
services from expert DDL package engineers.
“Today
more than ever, it is extremely important for packages containing
medical
devices or substances to maintain sterility or a reliable
cold chain through appropriate packaging,” said Patrick Nolan,
DDL COO. “For this reason, DDL is proud to offer the Pack-Advice
pledge to our clients. Pack-Advice demonstrates our commitment
to our clients and the end recipient of the packages we test and
approve.”
Core DDL services
include package testing and detailed reports of package pass/fail
integrity status. To augment this service DDL also offers Pack-Advice
counsel to package engineers actively engaged in a package testing
initiative. Recommendations can range from details of methods
that can improve package sterility and strength, alternative packing
processes and materials or even address vendor selection.
"I utilize
DDL for my package testing needs because of their knowledgeable
personnel and reliable turn around time,” said Randall Troutman,
Sr. Product Engineer, Smith & Nephew Orthopedic. “Working
with DDL has saved my company time and money over the past 4 years
due to their effective approach of balancing my needs with industry
requirements."
DDL Package
Engineers are proud to offer advice through the Pack-Advice pledge,
which helps companies comply with compliance regulations including
ISO 11607 (CE Mark) and the FDA Modernization Act, which calls
for the safety of and/or effectiveness of medical devices.
Pack-Advice
offers DDL clients, whether medical
device manufacturers or contract packagers, peace of mind
with free pre-and-post package, product
and material
testing consultations.
