General information
- Short Summary
- A Swedish Medtech company with a self-developed device that stores personal medical information is searching for a manufacturer for their silicone wristbands with integrated stainless steel plates.
- Full Description
-
The company's business area centers around the development and provision of advanced digital solutions for emergency information management, focusing on digitizing and streamlining the communication of critical medical information using QR codes. This is particularly aimed at individuals with acute medical conditions who need to relay vital information quickly in emergencies.
The company's products include wearable items such as wristbands and similar products, with integrated metal plates embedded with QR codes that store personal medical information. This merges health tech with consumer electronics, creating easy-to-use devices for everyday use. All digital solutions comply with GDPR. The company emphasizes data security and user privacy and handles sensitive medical data with high security and compliance standards, making the technology trustworthy and reliable for both the public and private sectors.
The company aspires to partner up with a manufacturer to produce their wristbands in silicone, alternatively a material with similar functional and ergonomic properties, and with integrated metal plates in stainless steel. Since the wristbands store personal medical information, the wearer must be able to wear the wristbands at all times, including during activities such as exercising and swimming. Hence, the wristbands should be produced from a silicone material, or similar, with water-resistant properties and with stainless steel plats, i.e. an alloy of iron that is resistant to rusting and corrosion.
Product specifications and measurements:
● Plate size: 29 x 19mm
● Wristband measurements for children: 145,160,180, 202mm x 10/16mm (preferably adjustable size)
● Wristband measurements for adults: 255 x 18 x 2mm (standard size)
● Colors include skin-color nudes, black, white, pink, yellow, green, and blue.
Ideally, the partner would be located within Europe for product safety reasons, and to ensure seamless logistics while avoiding unnecessary emissions due to long-distance shipping. - Advantages and Innovations
- The medical ID wristbands serve as a modern alternative to traditional carriers of personal medical information, facilitating secure and efficient dissemination of critical medical data to both relatives and healthcare professionals. Utilizing QR codes and existing digital infrastructure, these devices are designed for ease of use, requiring no extensive installation or technological expertise.
