Disinfecting Wipes Faster and Easier to Access With New Lid Design

The Dual Access Lid design is a flip top lid with snap & close technology to avoid issues with access and drying out.

PDI sought out customer feedback to influence the design of the Dual Access Lid.
PDI sought out customer feedback to influence the design of the Dual Access Lid.

The world has developed a fast-paced healthcare environment, which demands quicker and easier access to disinfecting wipes in order to maintain infection prevention protocol. To address issues of canister lids often being too narrow to dispense wipes properly, or difficult to close, leading to wipes drying out, PDI Healthcare—a provider of interventional care, environment of care, and patient care systems—created its Dual Access Lid, specifically designed for faster and easier access.

Healthcare Packaging sat down with Ben Dolcimascolo, PDI product director, environment of care, PDI Healthcare, to discuss the design process.

Q: What led you to create the Dual Access Lid design?

A: PDI received customer input over the years on key challenges they face during the disinfecting process. We identified an opportunity to improve the design of our wipe canister lids to ease the dispensing of wipes. We asked the PDI sales team to share real feedback they received on some common challenges surrounding dispensing wipes. Comments included difficulty feeding the first wipe through the opening, pulling out too many wipes at a time, and wasting time pulling out only one wipe at a time. Wipes drying out due to issues with keeping the canister lids closed was also a shared concern.
