Safely assemble, fill*, and package healthcare products.

Are you looking for secure, validated Turnkey Solutions for your healthcare products?

High regulatory requirements demand stable, validatable processes. Turnkey Solutions connect all steps from planning to implementation.

We understand regulated markets, from the requirement to the solution.

In the healthcare sector, product protection, patient safety, and compliance are the main focus. Processes must therefore be designed to be validatable, reproducible, and traceable, and must ensure consistent quality throughout the entire lifecycle. At the same time, there is increasing variety, cost pressure, and demand for efficient automation.

KOCH develops solutions based on your requirements and considers assembly, filling (* not-sterile filling), and packaging as an interconnected process chain, so that validation, documentation, and product safety are not added later, but are anchored in the concept.

Challenges in healthcare processes where we support you:
  • Regulatory requirements: 
    Secure compliance with international standards and guidelines as well as complete, auditable documentation of all relevant processes
  • Validation and reproducibility: 
    Reproducible processes and consistent quality across all batches, even with product or format changes
  • Traceability: 
    Seamless labeling as well as transparent, traceable process and production data across the entire line
  • Variety of variants: 
    Different products, formats, and packaging sizes on one line – with simultaneously short changeover times
  • Plannable efficiency and system availability: 
    High system availability and stable processes for reliable fulfillment of market and delivery requirements

Holistic solutions for your product’s process chain: from development to packaging.

Successful solutions do not arise at a single process step. They are created when product and packaging development, assembly, filling (* not-sterile filling), and packaging are considered together from the very beginning.

Anyone who considers requirements in isolation risks friction losses, unnecessary interfaces, and avoidable costs. That is why we look at the entire process chain, make dependencies visible, and create a reliable foundation – with the goal of securing today’s investments in the long term and taking future requirements into account from the outset.

KOCH Healthcare Expertise

Experience in regulated markets. Secure and efficient solutions for the highest demands.

KOCH has many years of experience in the development and implementation of holistic solutions for regulated healthcare applications. Our projects are characterized by the highest process reliability, validatable concepts, and clear responsibility along the entire line.

The focus is not on a single machine, but on a robust overall concept. Through modular and scalable solutions, the degree of automation, inspection and marking functions, as well as output, can be flexibly adapted. From the initial concept phase to the comprehensive Turnkey Solution.

The result is secure processes, transparent workflows, and investment security in a demanding regulatory environment.

Typical product worlds in the field of healthcare

Healthcare products are subject to strict regulatory requirements and demand the highest level of process reliability. Processes related to assembly, filling (* not-sterile filling), and packaging must therefore be validatable, traceable, and reproducible, without losing sight of efficiency and cost-effectiveness.

The following product examples show typical healthcare segments in which KOCH implements turnkey solutions. They are exemplary of our experience in regulated markets and our ability to reliably meet individual requirements.

From the requirement to the validated solution

In the healthcare sector, not only technology but also secure implementation throughout the entire process is crucial. That is why every project at KOCH begins with a thorough analysis of your requirements.

In the Packaging Competence Center, materials, processes, and concepts are examined, tested, and validated. Based on this, scalable solutions are developed, ranging from standard to modular to comprehensive turnkey projects that combine regulatory security and efficiency.
