The tracking labels have been in use in Finnish CSSD facilities since 2021, making it a pioneering innovation.
The labels are suitable for most materials commonly found on instruments, guaranteeing compatibility. Whether scanned by machine vision systemes of visually inspected by human eyes, the labels offer clear readabilty ensuring accurate identification and tracking. Built to withstand the demanding conditions of CSSD operations, the labels are engineered for long-lasting durability throughout the lifecycle of instruments while still being removable, without leaving behind residue or damage.
Manufactured to order, the own set of requirements and preferences of every CSSD department is taken into account. The company offers fully customizable tracking labels in a variety of colors. The most common and recognized sizes are round with diameters 4.5 mm, 5.0 mm and 6.5 mm. Rectangular labels are also available, for long and narrow instruments. Upon request, 2D matrix code (ECC200) can be laser-marked on each lable. All matrix codes meet GS1 standards. Each color has clearly contrasting markings for superior machine vision and human eye readability.
With seamless integration between the tracking labels and custom software, the instrument tracking process can be streamlined and workflow optimized while minimizing manual data entry. Boosting efficiency and accuracy and extending surgical instruments' lifespan, the software offers CSSD management precise, real-time data for smarter decision-making.
Key features are individualised instrument identification, detailed sterilization cycle monitoring, tailored alerts and notifications, seamless integration and user authentication and enhanced user experienc and scalability. The company offers automatic updateds and continuous support.
Color-coded labels can be used alone or integrated with the tracking software.
The labels have been widely embraced in Finland for their vibrant colors and effectiveness in managing instruments and accessories. They've become essential in CSSD-maintenance operations, serving almost the whole country.
The company has been operating solely in the domestic market and is now eager to explore international trade opportunities.
The products are truly unique, and the two-decade track record as a leading solution provider in laser marking in the Finnish market emboldens the company to expand into new markets, confident in the value they bring.
Lastly, the company has established a collaboration with an official CSSD institution. Developing the CSSD- EPR system together with actual users, educational institutions, and hospitals ensures the system is user-friendly, efficient, and meets the needs of the staff. - Advantages and Innovations
