Create Effective Wound Care Products

Building components for wound care and surgical recovery often requires careful material selection, product validation, and a precision die cutting process to produce accurate, consistent parts.

Strouse has over 40 years of experience helping manufacturers validate and manufacture wound dressings and other die cut medical products.

Types of Wound Care Solutions

Tapes, Films, and Other Wound Care Materials

Every wound care application is unique — some need to stick to the skin for several hours, while others last days or up to a week.

Each product requires specialty materials, often medical-grade. To choose the right wound care tape, converters source materials based on two factors:

1. The specific application use case

2. The desired adhesive strength

To attach a heavier wound dressing for long-term use, you might choose an acrylic skin adhesive. However, for a light, short-term application, a gentle silicone adhesive might be more suitable.

What Type of Manufacturing Environment Do Wound Care Products Require?

Pressure-sensitive wound care products for the medical industry are designed, developed, and then laminated and die cut in controlled environments.

Strouse uses an ISO 7-certified clean room to control air temperature, humidity, and particle levels, ensuring clean wound care tape products.

Clean Room manufacturing environment
- Reduces dust, particles, and other contaminants
- Controls temperature, humidity, and bioburden
- Industrial dehumidifier and separator filter dryer for hospital-grade air

“The prior supplier of a critical die-cut part struggled with precision. Strouse provided improved dimensional accuracy and increased line speeds with better material handling, and introduced automation to this operation for the first time. It’s been over a year since we commercialized, and not a single issue!”
