With over 4 million uses in the surgical setting and zero known adverse events for the 9-year history of the device, the safety of the ONE TRAY® container is beyond question.

On this week's release of the Beyond Clean Vendor Spotlight™ Series, we speak with Dave Billman, COO of ONE TRAY® IST about the latest communications regarding the company's product, the historical interactions that have led them to where they are today, and the way forward for current & future users of this American-made rigid container solution.
