What Medi-Dose/EPS does

Medi-Dose/EPS, operating as The Medi-Dose Group (comprising Medi-Dose, Inc., EPS, Inc., and Vu-Pak), is a privately held US pharmaceutical packaging company headquartered in Ivyland, Pennsylvania. Founded in or before 1980, the company has specialized for over 45 years in solid oral unit dose packaging systems, including the patented Medi-Cup Blisters, Lid-Label Covers, MILT 4 labeling and bar coding software, TampAlerT tamper-evident vials, Steri-Tamp IV seals, and the MPB Multi-Purpose Blister system for hazardous drug handling. Products are designed to comply with USP 797 and USP 800 standards for sterile compounding and hazardous drug packaging, and the portfolio extends into ophthalmic bottles (Steri-Dropper), oral syringes, chemo-safety bags, UV-protective covers, and ENFit enteral feeding devices distributed in partnership with NeoMed/Avanos.

The company's product ecosystem is designed to interoperate: Fil-Form templates and Roll-E-ZY Press Piece equipment calibrate to specific blister dimensions, MILT 4 software generates 1-D/2-D bar codes and tall man lettering compatible with BCMA and BPOC systems, and the labeled packaging outputs are validated for hospital pharmacy workflows. Pricing is published on the company's e-commerce website (medidose.com) on a per-unit basis with volume discounts (e.g., $44.76-$49.74 per 1,000 strips; $498 site license for MILT 4). Revenue derives from one-time sales of consumable packaging products with limited recurring software licensing.

The customer base is segmented across hospital pharmacies, compounding pharmacies (USP 797), nursing homes and extended care facilities, group homes/assisted living, and IV pharmacy/nursing departments, all served primarily through direct e-commerce with shipping across the United States. The company is family-owned — Robert Braverman serves as President and Bob Braverman as Director of Marketing — with no external private equity, venture capital, or public listing. Revenue figures are not publicly disclosed, and the company has 11-50 employees based on available data.
