Devices & Disposables
Devices and Disposables Applications
Single-use devices and medical disposables are crucial in modern health care because they provide numerous functions to deliver safe and effective patient care. These components serve many purposes, from sealing and insulating medical devices to preventing infections and cross-contamination.
Advantage Converting specializes in manufacturing high-quality components for disposables and single-use devices tailored to meet the strict ISO 13485 demands of the medical industry. We leverage decades of experience, premium-grade materials and advanced conversion processes to handle your production needs.
The Importance of Medical Disposables
Whenever a manufacturer can develop an entirely disposable product or a single-use device, they improve patient safety and reduce the risk of cross-contamination. Single-use devices are ready for immediate use upon removing them from the packaging, eliminating the time it takes to clean and sterilize reusable equipment.
Although disposables might seem more costly, they don’t require expensive equipment or maintenance that can drive up overhead costs. Many manufacturers also look for ways to preserve environmentally friendly production while reducing costs through single-use products. More importantly, leading manufacturers like Advantage Converting continuously develop new solutions with cutting-edge materials and processes that optimize cost efficiency and aim to minimize environmental impact.
Examples of single-use devices and disposables include:
- Anti-fog sponges
- Nasal strips
- Pulse oximetry tape
- Cautery tip cleaners
- Infusion sets
- Surgical equipment
- Wound care dressings
- Imaging supplies

FAQs
Q: When do I need a clean room?
Clean room manufacturing is primarily used when manufacturing sensitive materials that can be easily contaminated or affected by particles in the air. For example, at Advantage Converting, we have used our clean rooms to manufacture advanced wound care products, solar panel components, and vibration dampeners for the aerospace industry. However, a clean room can be used for any converted good. Our experts can work with you to determine clean room requirements for your project.
Q: What manufacturing processes does Advantage Converting perform in their clean rooms?
We can perform any manufacturing process in our clean rooms, including custom die cutting, laminating, slitting and rewinding, and roll-to-roll manufacturing.
Q: What is clean room manufacturing?
Clean room manufacturing is the use of an enclosed area with strict environmental controls to manufacture sensitive components. The controlled environment – or clean room – limits the presence of dust, airborne microbes, aerosol, and chemical vapors to prevent environmental contamination of sensitive components, such as those for medical, electronic, and aerospace applications.
Advantage Converting has multiple clean rooms that are available for all converted goods. Our clean rooms are certified as ISO 8 / Class 100,000 and ISO 7 / Class 10,000.
