Healthcare packaging requires a different approach to other sectors, as it must focus on clear and striking labelling to minimise potential confusion and maximise efficiency for medical professionals.

Following its colour-coding system, Medline has updated its packaging in line with feedback from research studies conducted with nurses.

This includes intuitive product labelling to state the function and help nurses quickly find the most effective product.

In addition, enhanced colour-coding on both ends of the packaging has been added to help medical professionals quickly and confidently identify the purpose of the product regardless of how it is stored.
