The EO gas sterilization is actually what most hospital procurement teams ask about first—it's pretty much the standdard for single-use devices like these, and we've been running it for years without a hitch.

What that means practically is you're getting a needle that's ready to go straight out of the individual blister pack, no extra prep needed, and the SUS 304 stainless steel cannula holds up well during procedures (better than some cheaper alloys we've seen in the market).

Most buyers we deal with go with the 18G x 90mm for routine epidurals, but the 16G is actually more common in veterinary work where you need a bit more flow, so it depends on your setup—either way, the plastic or steel core choice is yours.

Bulk pricing kicks in around 500 units or so, and our company can usually ship within 20 days after order confirmation, though lead time might stretch to 30 days if we're out of stock on a specific size—something to check before placing a large order.

Also, customiaztion is avaliable for bulk orders, like adding your logo to packging, but the needle specs themselves are fixed—we don't mess with the cannula length or gauge for safety reasons, obviously.
For custom orders, we typically require a minimum of 5,000 units per size and type. Smaller batches of standard 16G or 18G sizes can be arranged, just let us know your volume.
Standard orders ship within 15-20 working days after payment confirmation. Custom orders might take a bit longer depending on the specifics, usually around 25-30 days.
Yes, we include copies of our CE and ISO certifications with every order. If you need specific documentation for your hospital's compliance team, just ask and we'll send it along.
The plastic core needle is lighter and more flexible, reducing the risk of kinking during insertion. The steel core needle offers extra rigidity for better control in tough tissue. Both are sterile and single-use.
Yes, each needle comes in its own blister pack and is sterilized with EO gas. The packaging is designed to keep it sterile until you open it at the point of use.
