It's with sadness that we acknowledge the end of Critical Board by Critical Design.
For many years, Critical Board has been an important component in selected Tasman Medical products, valued for its innovative approach and contribution to more sustainable healthcare environments. We have appreciated the opportunity to incorporate this New Zealand-made material into our medical trolleys and equipment.
This week, without realising it at the time, we delivered what will likely be our final product featuring Critical Board. While we are disappointed that this material will no longer be available, we want to thank the team at Critical Design for challenging conventional thinking and demonstrating that there are alternative ways to design and manufacture products with sustainability in mind.
Innovation often begins with those willing to question the status quo. We wish everyone involved at Critical Design all the very best for the future and thank them for the role they have played in helping shape more sustainable solutions within healthcare.
