Clinical Diagnostics Packaging

Flexible Packaging for Instrument-Integrated Fluid Systems

Flexible pouches designed to integrate directly into diagnostic instruments for reliable fluid storage, delivery, and containment.

Typical applications:

  • Reagent pouches

  • Buffer and wash fluid reservoirs

  • Waste collection systems

From simple barrier bags to fully integrated fluid systems, we design packaging that works inside real-world diagnostic platforms.

Case Study: Instrument-Integrated Fluid Packaging

What Makes Us Different

Diagnostic packaging is rarely off-the-shelf.

It must be designed for:

  • Chemical compatibility

  • Moisture and gas barrier protection

  • Leak-proof sealing

  • Controlled fluid evacuation

  • Integration with automated systems

  • Repeatable manufacturing performance

Where We Fit

Inside diagnostic instruments, flexible packaging is used to:

  • Store reagents and buffers

  • Deliver fluids through the system

  • Contain waste after testing

Packaging must work within tight space constraints, integrate with pumps and tubing, and support consistent fluid movement.

Built for your system

The following factors are typically defined during system development and directly impact performance.

Fitments placed where your system requires them

Not just top-center. Positioned based on tubing and pump layout.

Geometry designed around your instrument

Built to fit within real space constraints.

Consistent fluid performance

Pouch collapse and flow behavior designed to support your process.

Barrier materials selected for stability

Protection from moisture vapor and gas permeation.

Where Our Packaging Fits in the Diagnostic Workflow

Our team designs packaging around how it is used throughout the diagnostic process. We consider the full lifecycle of your packaging, from fill to final use, to ensure consistent performance at every step.

Inside the Instrument

1

Flexible pouches serve as primary fluid reservoirs housed within automated analyzers, requiring precise geometry, repeatable performance, and exact fitment placement.


Upstream and internal handling

2

Packaging supports filling, staging, interplant transport, and storage prior to use, while maintaining chemical compatibility and barrier integrity.


Secondary containment & protection

3

Engineered solutions help manage critical fluids safely during handling, transport, and storage.

Engineered Capabilities for Clinical Diagnostics

Our capabilities are built to support the demands of automated diagnostic systems.

Instrument Integrated Fitments

Molded fitments installed exactly where your analyzer requires them, including offset, recessed, angled, or non standard locations.

High Barrier Film Structures

Custom laminations selected for chemical compatibility, shelf life stability, and protection from moisture or oxygen exposure.

Precision Converting

Tight dimensional control and repeatable processes to support reliable performance inside automated platforms.

Made to Order Manufacturing

Every pouch is engineered to your platform, fluid, and operational requirements. No stock solutions. No shortcuts.

Quality & Risk Management

When packaging supports diagnostic accuracy, quality systems are essential.

Heritage Packaging operates with documented quality management processes designed to support regulated life science environments, including:

  • Incoming material inspection and traceability

  • In process and final inspection

  • Lot consistency and repeatability

  • Change control and documentation support

Our approach is proactive and detail driven, built to reduce risk and support long term program stability.

Why Diagnostic Teams Choose Heritage

Diagnostic manufacturers partner with Heritage because we:

  • Collaborate early in development, before designs are locked

  • Understand automation constraints and proprietary platforms

  • Engineer packaging for repeatability and long term performance

  • Scale seamlessly from pilot runs to ongoing production

We work as an extension of your team, focused on solving the right problem the right way.

Let’s Design Packaging That Works Inside Your System

If your diagnostic platform requires flexible packaging that integrates cleanly into automated systems and performs consistently with critical fluids, our team is ready to collaborate.
