Scapa
Healthcare is a leading strategic outsource partner of choice in the
Advanced Wound Care, Consumer Wellness, Medical Device Fixation and Drug
Delivery markets. We have seen and benefitted from healthcare
companies increasing their engagement with outsourcing partners who
offer a more efficient means of manufacturing their products, an ability
to reduce complexity within their supply chain and an enhanced speed to
market for new products. In addition, as the demand for innovation by
our healthcare customers has increased, we have sought to offer new
technology, developed both internally and via acquisitions. We have
also positioned ourselves for the future by building a portfolio of
development projects with both our existing and emerging healthcare
companies.
