Case Studies
Remedy® DriGo-HP™
A custom coating and converting operation for an antibacterial wicking product that protects skin for an underserved patient population.
Medline’s skin health team identified an underserved patient population that needed an antibacterial wicking sheet to guard skin and wick moisture away from skin-on-skin friction. They came to Build by Boyd for a manufacturing partner who could develop Remedy® DriGo-HP™ from the ground up, from sourcing the right fabric and building a custom coating and converting process to scaling a reliable commercial operation. We finalized the product and packaging specifications, developed custom low-tension converting tooling for the stretchy fabric, and took over supply chain management. The result extended Medline’s Remedy® Skin Care portfolio into a new product category.

Process Development & Validation
Launching Remedy® DriGo-HP™ required solving a genuinely complex manufacturing challenge. The product's stretchy wicking fabric demanded a custom coating process and custom low-tension converting tooling—both of which Build by Boyd developed, installed, and validated for commercial production. Close collaboration with the coating solution manufacturer, fabric manufacturer, and Medline was essential to developing and validating multiple interdependent processes.
Alongside the manufacturing development, Build by Boyd created a custom packaging solution designed to maximize ease of use and functionality while meeting competitive cost requirements—ensuring the product could succeed both clinically and commercially.

Supply Chain Management
Remedy® DriGo-HP™ is manufactured from a moisture-wicking fabric and a proprietary antibacterial solution, requiring careful supply chain development from the earliest stages of the program. Build by Boyd worked closely with Medline to identify and source materials, collaborate with suppliers on process development and validation, and build a demand plan to support launch.
Today, Build by Boyd owns and manages all supplier relationships and procurement procedures—maintaining raw material quality and on-time delivery while supporting Medline's business continuity requirements through alternate source qualification.
