Case studies

Insulin project

Injection moulded needle syringes to remove 5 billion uncontrolled & life threatening intravenous needles from public use and waste streams. This low cost, plastic syringe needle is suitable for subcutaneous insulin injection but too short for intravenous drug injection, so can be made sharp safe without the need for special disposal requirements.

Rapi-Heal project

Development of a cost-effective, high-performance system for the treatment of open wounds. The official project description was An affordable and more effective negative pressure closure treatment for chronic ulcers to improve patient mobility & quality of life.
