Irrimax Wound Irrigation System

The Irrimax Wound Irrigation System is a medical product which reduces health care costs by speeding up the wound irrigation procedure and eliminating the chance of accidental needle sticks.

Slingshot's extensive involvement in the program included early concept work, developing the product for high-volume manufacture, launching Irrimax Corporation, assisting with the development of corporate identity assets, developing the website, managing plastic part suppliers, managing the set up of a manufacturing facility and associated production equipment, and managing FDA compliance issues and associated documentation.

Slingshot's key design challenge was to create a bottle that was ergonomically appropriate and thin enough to be squeezed easily, yet was robust enough to survive steam sterilization.

We delivered a quality product on time and within budget. The product launched in June 2004 (18 months from official engagement) and is being distributed nationwide by Cardinal Health; Slingshot continues to serve on the board of Irrimax Corporation.
