Background

The Domeject Redosa Syringe addresses 3 typical problem areas of conventional syringes

  • Plastic waste: environmental issues and costs of biological waste
  • Usage: air bubbles and dosing errors due to dead space 
  • Use of silicone to reduce friction 

Plastic waste in Health care facts

Plastic waste in Health Care has become a pressing issue that requires urgent attention. 

In response, countries and institutions around the globe are taking bold steps by enacting robust policies to tackle the environmental impact of plastic waste. 

Now is the right time for innovative solutions that help policymakers and health care providers make a meaningful difference and save money

Domeject’s ReDosa Syringe not only represents a significant advancement in reducing environmental harm but also introduces a revolutionary design that enhances usability , efficiency avoid the need of silicone

  1. PLASTIC WASTE in Health Care accounts for approximately 5% of global greenhouse gas emissions. This is more than the aviation industry in total
  2. COSTS: Reducing single-use plastic is generally expensive since it often contains biological waste, which has to be collected in yellow or blue  containers
  3. POLICIES: In March 2022, a unique

    UN mandate was accepted to address the problem of plastic waste. The EU agreed on a European Strategy for plastics.  These mandatory political policies provide a framework that healthcare institutions and regions must actively implement to improve care and support our communities.

  4. Hospitals understand the importance of sustainability and are genuinely committed to reducing the use of single-use plastic products. We recognize the impact this has on our environment, and this creates new market drivers for new innovative products

Now  hospitals can reduce syringe plastic waste by 85%: Domejects ReDosa™ Syringe addresses these challenges through its groundbreaking  design

Usability of conventional syringes

Silicone oil is used in syringes to lubricate the inner glass or plastic barrel and the rubber plunger stopper, allowing the plunger to move smoothly and reducing the force needed to inject medication

Many conventional syringes are also known for dosing errors related to improper use: Death space and technique

 

Key Functions of Silicone in Syringes 

  • Reduces friction, preventing the rubber tip from sticking to the syringes wall
  • Lowers injection force to easily push the plunger for improved dosing
  • Maintains the seal so that the liquid medicine does not leak or trap air

Risks and Drawbacks

  • Protein aggregation: silicone droplets can mix and alter sensitive protein-based drugs
  • Inflammation: Released silicone particles may have side effects lie eye inflammation
  • Alternative options: expensive silicone free and expensive  alternatives are available

Due to the Innovative design of Domejects ReDosa syringe : No silicone is needed,  No trapping air and a much easier handling of the plunger
