CH ELLIS CASE STUDY
A STARTUP SUCCESS STORY
Medical Equipment Bag for Diagnostic Devices
When a medical startup needed a medical equipment bag for their FDA-approved autism diagnostic device, they partnered with C.H. Ellis to create a custom sewn bag that balanced protection, portability, and brand visibility—without straining their budget.
Startups developing breakthrough medical technology face a unique challenge: getting to market quickly while meeting performance and compliance needs.
For this client, the right soft bag wasn’t just about packaging—it was about making deployment faster and easier for study teams across the country.
THE CHALLENGE:
PROTECT AND PROMOTE
The diagnostic device in development was delicate, field-deployable, and backed by FDA approval. But off-the-shelf solutions didn’t offer the specific protection or presentation needed to reflect the quality of the technology inside.
THE CLIENT NEEDED A CUSTOM MEDICAL BAG THAT COULD:
1
Keep the device and accessories safe during transport
2
Fit specific dimensions without wasted space
3
Be lightweight and easy to carry for field personnel
4
Showcase their full-color logo without inflating production costs
THE SOLUTION:
A SMART, SOFT MEDICAL EQUIPMENT BAG
C.H. Ellis designed a custom medical bag that checked every box. Instead of costly embroidery or silkscreen printing, we used a digitally printed heat transfer to apply the company’s full-color logo—providing rich branding at a lower cost.
We also engineered the interior to include strategic padding and compartmentalization, ensuring the device and accessories were protected from bumps and drops during transit. The final design offered a balanced profile: compact enough for travel, roomy
enough for accessories, and comfortable to carry.
The Results: A Soft Bag That Moves Products Forward
This collaboration helped the client:
Protect fragile equipment with a durable, padded solution
Accelerate deployment by making it easier to ship and distribute the device to study sites
Save money on branding with a cost-effective logo display
BY CHOOSING A CUSTOM MEDICAL EQUIPMENT BAG BUILT SPECIFICALLY FOR THEIR PRODUCT, THE CLIENT GAINED MORE THAN JUST A TRANSPORT SOLUTION - THEY GAINED A FASTER PATH TO MARKET WHILE ELEVATING THEIR BRAND.
