Production of hydrocolloid patches at scale

Production of Hydrocolloid Patches at Scale. Seeking innovative, cost-effective methods to produce hydrocolloid patches at scale for use in consumer health products, ensuring high quality and performance.

What we are looking for:

Scalable production processes for hydrocolloid patches that maintain quality, efficacy, and cost-efficiency, suitable for integration into consumer health products like wound care or skincare solutions.

Must have Requirements are:

• Scalable manufacturing process for hydrocolloid patches with consistent quality.
• Compatibility with existing hydrocolloid formulations for wound care or skincare.
• Compliance with regulatory standards for consumer health products (e.g., FDA or EU regulations).

Nice-to-have requirements are:

• Cost-effective production methods to reduce manufacturing costs.
• Ability to incorporate active ingredients (e.g., antimicrobials, healing agents).
• Environmentally friendly materials or processes.
• High-throughput production capacity for large-scale commercialization.

Out of scope:

• Non-hydrocolloid based patches or materials.
• Production methods not suitable for consumer health applications.
• Processes requiring non-standard or proprietary equipment not widely available.

Please note: Faculty and researchers interested in applying for these opportunities based on technologies developed or disclosed at Vanderbilt must submit their proposals through the CTTC.
