In the fast-paced world of healthcare, protecting and organising critical equipment can make the difference between life and death. The following case studies showcase how our customised storage solutions are addressing specific challenges across healthcare settings.
From protective cases for delicate syringe pumps to emergency response kits and specialised training equipment storage, these examples demonstrate how thoughtful design can support healthcare professionals in delivering exceptional care.
University Hospital Trust Leicester
A durable plastic carry case was designed and manufactured with custom internal foam to securely house the McKinley T34 Syringe Pump, a critical device used in palliative care. The case features branding for easy identification and to help ensure the equipment is returned to University Hospitals Leicester. Additionally, a designated space on the front allows for the optional inclusion of a return address.
For this medical equipment kit, we specifically selected a plastic case due to its durability, providing full protection during transit. Its wipeable surface also allows for easy cleaning with sterile solutions, ensuring hygiene standards are maintained.
The custom-cut internal foam is designed with precision to securely hold each component, offering both impact protection and a quick visual inventory check. This helps verify that the kit is complete before being issued to patients or the care team, ensuring the availability of all necessary equipment.
University Hospital Trust
For the University Hospitals Trust, we designed and produced a fast-response, SOS-branded plastic carry case printed with “SOS: Suspicion of Sepsis.” This case was specifically designed for easy recognition and use within hospital and ward environments.
Supplied empty, it serves as a versatile solution for storing essential equipment and literature for wall mounting. The case ensures quick and easy access in situations where sepsis is suspected, enabling staff to promptly begin patient assessment and treatment.
Other healthcare projects have included the supply of similar solutions to private companies that manufacture healthcare and medical products. One such project involved a manufacturer of teaching aids, supplying training materials for trainee surgeons. Another focused on developing a home dialysis machine transport solution.
Neurosurgery Teaching Aid
A protective storage and transport solution was designed, quoted, and supplied to a private company specialising in neurosurgical training services. We provided our Excellent plastic cases, featuring a custom CNC routed foam interior. This particular case was selected for its lightweight design, ensuring optimal protection and guaranteeing that critical medical and educational equipment arrives at training locations in perfect working condition, free from transit damage.
Protective solution for home dialysis equipment
A private company supplying the NHS required a protective storage and transport solution for delivering dialysis equipment to patients’ homes. Given the high value and delicate nature of the equipment, a heavy-duty protective solution was essential to withstand repeated transportation while ensuring easy loading and unloading for patients.
From our range of cases, our robust flight cases proved to be the perfect fit for their requirements. We then customised and tailored the flight case precisely to their needs and specifications.
At PottertonPacs, we take pride in providing high-quality cases that meet the demands of medical teams on the go. Whether you need a durable plastic case for medications or a custom-designed shell case for observation kits, we’re here to support your vital work with reliable, practical solutions.
