| Method Rationale: | REAL Digital International (RDi previously known as MedDX) have supplied Weqas with the majority of our packaging requirements (sample transporters, foil pouches and envelopes) for many years, supplying bespoke products for many of the transporters based on Weqas’ specific requirements. The transporters offer a patented leak-proof clamshell with internally laminated super absorbent material. Transporters are moulded to separate and hold all primary containers to ensure safe, leak proof transport of materials to our customers. They provide protection against impact and mishandling during transport even for the fragile glass vials within our range. Transporters are IATA compliant, essential for us as an international EQA provider distributing products across all continents. The transporters are simple and intuitive to pack/close and un-pack. In addition to the end user experience, they deliver an efficient packaging experience in terms of time to pack e.g. no extra absorbent material needs to be added. Three products have been designed specifically for Weqas to hold unique vial sizes or unique combinations of vials / tubes. These combinations ensure secure containment within specified sizes of transporters minimising wastage of space and therefore creating smaller, lighter packages for transport through the mailing system. The three bespoke products are the 18 well multi tube transporter, the 18 well transporter for glass vials for the Weqas Blood Gas programme and the 9 well transporter for the Weqas Co-oximetry Acu Cap vials. Both transporters and envelopes are bespoke products printed with the Weqas logo to stand out as a branded professional product. The foil pouches and envelopes have been refined over the years to accommodate the various sizes required by Weqas to pack and deliver the unique requirements for each customer. |
