BMP Medical opens new medical device manufacturing training room

BMP Medical has opened a private in-house training room at its Sterling, Massachusetts, 80,000 sq. ft. plastic hub manufacturing facility.

BMP Medical’s in-house training room for all employees and local partners helps to build long-lasting collaborative working relationships. We recognize that training and further business growth in the manufacturing industry must shift focus to developing enhanced employee skills in the technology sector to stay ahead. Courses in highly specialized skills, such as computerized systems and/or operating automated equipment, are just a few of the many training programs BMP Medical will host.

BMP MedicalThe present marketplace has created a growing need to hold onto skilled employees, and so training all employees is essential. BMP Medical recognizes that a positive onboarding experience helps employees adapt faster, creates a safer work environment, decreases turnover, and helps to mitigate risk for many of our OEM partners. It is a win-win for employees, BMP Medical, and the many businesses for whom we manufacture medical devices and components.

“We offer training programs to all of our employees in a positive environment. It is a serious commitment for the employees and for us, but the rewards are tremendous. It is very gratifying to watch our employees move up through the organizational structure, achieve higher salaries, and gain an expanded knowledge set,” said Michael Faulkner, Chief Executive Officer & President of BMP Medical.

“I have been helping to oversee all of the employee and partner training programs throughout the organization that are set up on-site within a familiar environment. We are hosting specific training programs for new software, software updates, Six-Sigma, manufacturing automation, LEAN manufacturing principles, IQMS, Total Quality Management, onboarding, shadowing programs, and employee safety,” said Rawleen White, Office Manager/Executive Assistant of BMP Medical.

BMP MedicalMany current employees exemplify BMP Medical’s commitment to these programs. Many on our team have been with BMP Medical for more than 10 years, and several have been promoted from Inspector/Packers to Material Mixers to Shift Leads to Process Technicians to Maintenance. Many have enjoyed learning new skills that allow them to expand their future at BMP Medical. It is great to have a strong leadership team that is always looking to the future.

BMP Medical feels that our greatest asset is our people, and we want to be able to promote from within whenever possible. The company continues to exceed its growth goals and continues to reinvest in new capital equipment and employee training programs yearly.

We’re also developing strategic partnerships with local colleges that have engineering, innovative design, and development centers and that utilize plastics in the manufacturing process. These educational programs offer a wealth of knowledge on key factors in plastic manufacturing at our on-site facility that will help advance professionals and students.

Plastic Products Catalog

BMP Medical is a quality manufacturer of plastic consumables and plastic products for research and medical diagnostic laboratories. Our products are manufactured to the highest quality standards. We offer a wide selection of products sold through the world’s premier laboratory distributors.

Non-Sterile and Sterile Centrifuge Bottles

  • Available with standard caps for low-speed work and sealing caps for high-speed applications
  • Caps have a built-in gripper to facilitate removal from the rotor
  • Extra thick walls for durability-resistant to most chemicals
  • Wide mouth design makes filling and decanting easier
These precision molded centrifuge bottles are available in polycarbonate or polypropylene. For low speed applications the bottles provide excellent value for large volume/large batch centrifugation procedures. For high-speed work, the easy-to-use Noryl® (Noryl® is a registered trademark of General Electric Company) sealing caps with silicone O-rings enable leak-free processing at high centrifugal forces over long durations. Bottles must be filled to 80% of capacity. Centrifuge bottles may be autoclaved at 121ºC at 15 psi for 20 minutes. Caps should be placed on the bottles without engaging the threads. Bottles are qualified to the rated g-forces using Sorvall® (Sorvall® is a registered trademark of Kendro Laboratory Products) and Fiberlite® (Fiberlite® is a registered trademark of Piramoon Technologies Inc.) high-speed rotors, tested at 20ºC, with bottles filled to 80% of capacity. Failure to use the correct rotor cushion or adapter will shorten the life of the bottle and may prevent achievement of the maximum rated RCF and/or bottle failure. Prolonged autoclaving and reuse may cause stress cracks, crazing or bottle discoloration.

Hemodrop Blood Dispenser

The Hemodrop is designed to reduce the risk of exposure to bloodborne pathogens in the Hematology laboratory. To prepare a manual differential smear, a drop of blood needs to be dispensed onto a glass slide from the specimen tube. Simply puncture the rubber stopper with the Hemodrop, and then invert and press gently onto the slide. A single drop of blood will be dispensed and the slide is ready. No more removing the stopper and manually putting a drop on the slide to test blood.
