Watch-outs
Idea-specific discussion points — not automatic disqualification
Compliance with Sterilization Standards
Ensure adherence to ISO 13485 and local sterilization norms; non‑compliance can lead to product recalls.
Raw Material Price Volatility
Fluctuations in cotton and polyester prices can squeeze margins; lock in bulk contracts where possible.
Market Saturation
The bandage market is crowded; differentiate via quality certifications or niche wound‑care products.
Cash‑flow Management
High upfront inventory and slow payment terms from hospitals can strain liquidity; maintain adequate working capital.
Skill Gap in Sewing & QC
Hiring skilled technicians and QC staff is critical; invest in training to avoid defects.
