Medical device manufacturers face mounting pressure to secure reliable, flexible supply chains. In response, Merrill’s Packaging delivers solutions through strategic nearshore manufacturing capabilities that combine quality, proximity, and efficiency.
Strategic Locations for Maximum Flexibility
Merrill’s operates from its California headquarters and two expanded facilities in Costa Rica. As a result, this dual-location strategy provides medical device companies with nearshore manufacturing advantages that can’t be beat. Manufacturers gain faster turnaround times and reduced shipping costs. Additionally, they benefit from easier communication across similar time zones.
Advanced Manufacturing Capabilities
Extrusion and thermoforming technologies power Merrill’s production capabilities. These processes enable the company to create custom medical device trays that meet exact specifications. For example, complex catheter systems require specialized packaging solutions. Merrill’s excels at producing long trays designed specifically for these intricate devices.
Furthermore, the company’s extrusion expertise allows them to control material properties precisely. Their thermoforming capabilities transform those materials into functional, protective packaging. Long trays for catheter systems demand exceptional dimensional accuracy and consistency. Merrill’s manufacturing processes deliver both reliably.
Expert Teams Drive Innovation
An experienced sales team guides clients through every project phase. They understand the unique challenges medical device manufacturers face daily. Meanwhile, their award-winning design team transforms concepts into production-ready solutions. These designers stay current with industry regulations and emerging technologies.
Customer collaboration shapes every project at Merrill’s facilities. The design team works closely with manufacturers to optimize tray configurations. Sales professionals ensure seamless communication from initial consultation through final delivery.
The Nearshore Advantage
Costa Rica’s two facilities expand Merrill’s capacity significantly while maintaining quality standards. Consequently, nearshore manufacturing reduces the risks associated with overseas production. Medical device companies gain supply chain resilience without sacrificing quality or regulatory compliance.
Ultimately, Merrill’s Packaging combines location advantages, technical expertise, and proven experience. Their capabilities in extrusion, thermoforming, and long tray production serve the medical device industry’s most demanding applications.
