Apodan and Teampac: Innovating Healthcare with BagBath

At Teampac, we are proud to be a trusted partner in the development and manufacturing of Apodan’s healthcare solutions, such as the BagBath product.

Through years of collaboration, we’ve combined our expertise in controlled environment manufacturing with Apodan’s vision to create products that enhance patient care and improve efficiency for healthcare professionals. 

The origins of BagBathimproving patient care with a new approach 

In 1994, nurse Susan M. Skewes, RN, developed a theory-based alternative method to the traditional bed bath, which led to the creation of BagBath. The product was designed to provide a more efficient and hygienic solution for patient care, particularly in healthcare settings where hygiene and comfort are crucial. 

As Morten Lodberg Petersen, CEO of Apodan, explains: 

– Traditional bed bathing was not only time-consuming but also posed risks of cross-contamination. We needed a solution that would improve hygiene, enhance comfort, and be easier for healthcare workers to use. BagBath was created to meet these needs. 

Teampacthe trusted partner behind quality manufacturing 

When it came time to find a manufacturing partner for BagBath, Apodan chose Teampac for our expertise in manufacturing healthcare products in controlled environments. Reflecting on the partnership, Petersen shares: 

– Teampac’s ability to ensure product quality through precise manufacturing standards made them the perfect partner. Our collaboration has been key in maintaining the high standards expected in healthcare settings. 

Teampac’s commitment to quality has been instrumental in supporting the ongoing refinement of BagBath, ensuring it continues to meet the evolving needs of the healthcare industry. 

Improving comfort and efficiency for patients and healthcare providers

BagBath has proven to be an efficient solution for both patients and healthcare providers. Petersen emphasizes the comfort and efficiency BagBath brings to patients: 

–  The heated wipes offer a much more comfortable experience for patients, especially in ICUs where comfort is crucial. By improving patient comfort and reducing the strain on healthcare workers, BagBath has streamlined the patient care process. 

Healthcare providers benefit from the time-saving nature of BagBath, which reduces the physical effort required during traditional bed bathing.  

– BagBath makes patient care more efficient, which is essential in busy healthcare environments. Healthcare workers can focus on other important tasks, improving overall care. 

Sustainability and innovation for the future 

Sustainability is a key priority for both Apodan and Teampac. 

 The healthcare industry is increasingly focused on sustainable practices. Teampac has been instrumental in helping us make BagBath more eco-friendly by exploring sustainable manufacturing methods, says Petersen. 

Both companies continue to focus on innovation, exploring new ways to improve patient care while reducing environmental impact.  

– Innovation is at the heart of everything we do at Apodan. Together with Teampac, we’re constantly challenging ourselves to not only enhance healthcare solutions but also to create more sustainable products that leave a positive impact on both patients and the planet.
