      Company Infofounder

      Action Products, Inc., founded in 1970 by Dr. McElroy, during his pursuit to develop a pressure relieving material that would help prevent pressure sores in immobilized patients has spurred a worldwide revolution in the pressure management industry. In its third generation of family ownership and management, Action has flourished as a global medical company operating in 58 countries.

      Akton® Polymer

      The key element in our products is an exclusive material called AKTON® Viscoelastic polymer. No one has AKTON polymer but us, and it is a wondrous material. It looks and feels like a gel, but is more body friendly. It does not leak, flow or bottom out. The best part is that it is repairable! The film is tissue equivalent, and together with the polymer, creates the most shear resistant product on the market today.

      Since it is reusable, it helps environmentally, economically, and of course clinically. The perfect package.

      Clinical Proof

      But don't take our word for it. Read what the medical community has to say about our products. You can do so on our White Papers page. These studies prove that AKTON polymer works to reduce the development of pressure sores. We're proud of that, and our engineers continuously work to improve and expand our product line

      We also have a Operating Room Nurse Advice Line, open for you to ask us questions and give you recommendations based on AORN guidelines.

      Custom Products

      Our company has grown by providing our customers with exactly what they want and need. If you do not see what you're looking for, contact us with your custom ideas. Our complex customized products separate us from our competitors.

      Commitment to Education

      Action Products, Inc., over the past 40 years has provided education on the importance of preventing pressure injuries. It is our passion, therefore we have created a free CE, Educational DVD on patient positioning, in-services to hospitals, sponsoring AORN activities and our company blog.

RISKS ARE HIGHER IN THE PERIOPERATIVE ENVIRONMENT

“Individuals need to scan only a few nursing magazines to discover that accidents and injuries within healthcare settings happen in the operating room (OR) more than any other location. The OR is a unique work environment and requires higher levels of teamwork and communication. The nature of the environment creates specific issues that may be under control in other units in the hospital,” begins a piece in EducationCareerArticles.com. Read on...
