Stradis Healthcare (Lawrenceville, GA, USA), a leading provider of medical procedural kits, has entered into a definitive acquisition agreement with Medikmark (Waukegan, IL, USA), a major provider of healthcare kits.

Stradis provides large, custom procedural kits for the endovenous, oral health, ophthalmic, plastic, tissue bank, obstetrics and gynecology, and other surgical markets, while Medikmark is a leader in high volume production of smaller kits for wound care and dressing, intravenous (IV) start, suture removal, catheters and irrigation, suture removal kits, tracheostomy care kits, staff protection, and other markets. The companies will work closely with customers, suppliers, and employees to make the integration process as smooth as possible.

“Stradis has proven itself as a leader in the custom surgical packs market, and is well positioned to continue exceptional growth into adjacent markets and with a growing portfolio of products and services,” said Derrell James, President and CEO of Stradis Healthcare. “With Medikmark, our commitment is to bring the right tools and support to the medical community to ensure the best possible surgical outcomes for our clients and the ultimate customer, the patient.”

“We are particularly pleased to be working with the quality of people that are part of Stradis Healthcare,” said Jim Ronk, President of Medikmark. “The combination of Stradis Healthcare and Medikmark will offer customers the advantage of one stop shopping for both small kits as well as large kits. Furthermore, material acquisition cost savings will result from our enhanced purchasing power.”

“The acquisition of Medikmark fits perfectly into our strategy of building our product portfolio and enhancing the value we offer to our customers,” said Jeff Jacobs, Chairman of Stradis Healthcare. “The combination of these two great companies puts Stradis in the position to further its reputation as a market leader. We are committed to providing the solutions and products our customers need to succeed in this new era of healthcare.”
