Innokas and GE Healthcare have worked closely together with optimizing the effectiveness and cost-efficiency of the mass-production of GE’s D-Fend Pro Water Trap, which is CE-marked and cleared by the FDA. Innokas Medical manufactures the product for GE Healthcare at the Tallinn factory with high annual production volumes.

“Although D-Fend Pro Water Trap is a fairly straightforward disposable accessory, its role in the success of the patients’ respiratory monitoring is significant. We’ve required high-quality and uniform products from Innokas, flexibility to meet the volume change requests and the ability to improve the production efficiency. We have been very happy with Innokas Medical’s way of operation as we can together improve the production process”, says Terho Hoskonen, Managing Director of GE Healthcare Finland Oy.
