In highly regulated industries like medical technology, parts cleaning is more than just a production step; it is a critical quality process. Cleanliness directly affects product safety, regulatory compliance, performance, and ultimately, patient outcomes.
At the same time, manufacturers and their suppliers are under increasing pressure. Regulatory requirements continue to evolve. Production volumes fluctuate. Expectations are rising. Supply chains are also becoming more complex.
To address these challenges, Ecoclean Inc. and EnPak LLC have partnered to open the MedTech Clean & Pack Technology Center in Warsaw, Indiana, one of the most important hubs for orthopedic and medical device manufacturing in the United States.
This facility was not created as a showroom. It was built as a problem-solving center for manufacturers and their suppliers.
The Challenges Manufacturers Are Facing
Medical device manufacturers, especially their tier suppliers, are navigating a complex landscape.
- Increasing FDA and MDR regulatory requirements
- Rising expectations for cleaning processes
- Growing documentation demands
- Fluctuating production volumes
- Pressure to reduce capital expenditures
- Limited internal expertise in cleaning and packaging
For many companies, cleaning and packaging are essential, yet these are not part of their core business. Nevertheless, these processes carry significant regulatory risks.
At the same time, high-end parts cleaning requires substantial investment in equipment, infrastructure, cleanroom environments, utilities, and expertise. For small and midsized companies, this can hinder growth. Even larger OEMs face the challenge of scaling capacity without compromising compliance.
Many manufacturers are asking: How can we maintain high-demanding cleaning processes while remaining flexible and cost-effective?
A Different Approach: Integrated Clean & Pack
The MedTech Clean & Pack Technology Center in Warsaw was designed to address this issue.
Unlike traditional contract cleaning providers or standalone equipment suppliers, this facility combines advanced cleaning technology with downstream services in one location. The center offers:
- Pre-cleaning in a three-stage ultrasonic aqueous system
- Vacuum pre-cleaning and vapor degreasing in a single-chamber system
- Final cleaning in an ultrasonic, multi-stage cleaning system
- Packaging
- Inventory management
- Logistics
- Contract cleaning under FDA- and MDR-regulations
This integrated approach eliminates handoffs between multiple vendors and reduces risk at every stage. For manufacturers, this means fewer interfaces, clearer accountability, and a more efficient process.
Why Outsourcing Cleaning Is Becoming a Strategic Decision?
Outsourcing cleaning services is no longer just about cost; it's also about flexibility and risk management.
Scalability without capital investment.
Contract cleaning with Ecoclean & EnPak gives companies access to high-end parts cleaning technology without requiring them to invest in their own equipment, infrastructure, or internal compliance processes. This is especially valuable for:
- Small and growing MedTech companies
- Tier suppliers with fluctuating production volumes
- Companies producing small batches or occasional production runs
Rather than building capacity that may be underutilized, manufacturers can scale up or down as demand changes.
Access to state-of-art technologies.
Regulatory expectations continue to evolve. Maintaining in-house expertise in parts cleaning can be resource intensive. By working with a specialized partner, manufacturers can access modern equipment, established processes, know-how, and documentation support, which reduces compliance risk.
In March 2026, Ecoclean and EnPak teams jointly inaugurated the Clean & Pack Technology Center.
A Strategic Partnership Built for MedTech
The Technology Center was established when two companies recognized a gap in the market.
EnPak LLC is a Warsaw-based company that specializes in providing services to medical device manufacturers and their suppliers. The company's core areas of expertise include packaging, inspection, inventory management, logistics, all of which are performed in compliance with FDA and MDR requirements.
Ecoclean Inc., headquartered in Southfield, Michigan, provides advanced industrial parts cleaning systems and turnkey cleaning solutions. As the U.S. subsidiary of the global SBS Ecoclean Group, Ecoclean Inc. combines worldwide technology leadership with strong local support and responsiveness.
The partnership was a strategic move to better serve the U.S. medical technology industry, particularly in Warsaw, Indiana, a major orthopedic manufacturing hub.
Together, the two companies combine Ecoclean’s parts cleaning technology expertise with EnPak’s packaging, logistics, and services capabilities to offer a comprehensive clean-and-pack solution under one roof.
Medical Device Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) and Tier Suppliers
Our primary focus is on medical device manufacturers and their supply chains, especially those producing:
- Implants
- Instrumentation
- Specialized medical device components
- Precision parts requiring validated, high-purity cleaning
The integrated model offers particular advantages for Tier suppliers. Rather than coordinating with separate partners for cleaning, packaging, and logistics, they gain access to a comprehensive solution that supports regulatory compliance and supply-chain efficiency.
Supporting Growth for Small and Large Companies - One of the Clean & Pack strengths is its adaptability.
For small and growing manufacturers
Emerging MedTech companies often face a dilemma: They need parts cleaning and packaging capabilities to win contracts, but they lack the capital for a full in-house infrastructure. Our new Technology Center allows them to:
- Access high-end cleaning systems
- Meet regulatory expectations
- Scale production as demand increases
They can also avoid major upfront investment and lower barriers to entry and accelerate growth.
For larger manufacturers
Established OEMs and suppliers benefit differently. For them, the new Technology Center offers:
- Additional capacity during peak demand
- A reliable outsourcing partner
- Consulting expertise to optimize in-house operations
In both cases, the focus remains the same: solving real production challenges with practical solutions.
Beyond MedTech: Expanding Capabilities to Other Precision Industries
The Technology Center's capabilities extend far beyond medical devices. Any industry in which cleanliness directly affects performance, reliability, or compliance can benefit. These include:
- Aerospace
- Automotive and automotive suppliers
- High-tech manufacturing
- Semiconductor and high-vacuum technology
- Precision Optics
- Microtechnology
- Precision Engineering
Manufacturers in all these sectors face increasing performance standards and strict quality requirements. High-demanding parts cleaning processes, controlled handling, and reliable packaging have become essential for supply-chain efficiency and product reliability.
Our Clean & Pack model provides access to advanced technology and flexible capacity without requiring a significant capital investment.
What makes this facility unique?
Many companies offer cleaning services. Others provide packaging services. Some specialize in logistics. The Warsaw Technology Center stands out because it integrates all these capabilities in a single environment.
It is not just a contract cleaning service! It's not just a packaging provider! It is not just an equipment supplier!
It is a fully integrated solutions center designed to support the entire supply chain — from contaminated components to compliant, packaged products ready for delivery. This integration reduces risk, shortens process chains, and increases transparency.
