Meech celebrates the vital contribution that voluntary blood donors make to healthcare systems across the world on World Blood Donor day, June 14th. Millions of medical treatments, from emergency surgeries to help for ongoing chronic illnesses can take only place as a result of their generosity.
At Meech we play a small part in this remarkable system, through the role of static management equipment in the production of medical blood bags. Static electricity can attract dust and particles to plastic films during production, which could compromise the integrity of blood bags if the contaminants weren’t removed.
By removing contaminants before the films are sealed, through the use of non-contact web cleaning systems, our technology ensures that blood bags meet the highest safety standards.
Our static management equipment is used in many different applications across the healthcare sector, from medical device blister packaging, web cleaning of medical bandages and the static pinning of non-woven materials for products like face masks, to pill packing and of course blood bags.
