Vonco Products Receives FDA 510(k) Clearance for Novel Closed-Loop Enteral Feeding Solution - EnteraLoc™ Flow

Whether in the hospital or the home, the EnteraLoc Flow feeding solution is designed to support or improve the enteral patient’s lifestyle.

TREVOR, Wis.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Vonco Products LLC, an industry-leading contract manufacturer of liquid-tight medical fluid bags and devices, biohazard transport, and infection prevention PPEs and device covers, today announced that the patented EnteraLoc™ Flow direct-connect enteral nutritional delivery system was granted 510(k) clearance by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA).

The EnteraLoc Flow spouted pouch with ENFit® connector was developed with insight from patients, clinicians, and brand owners. It is the first seamless, closed-loop enteral feeding solution that combines a leak-proof seal, direct-connect ENFit® device, tube and nutritious food options in one complete feeding system.

Keith Smith, CEO of Vonco Products, said, “We’re thrilled to offer a solution that helps delivers better enteral care. EnteraLoc is designed to improve the nutrition of enteral patients by providing a convenient method of food delivery that is simple, safe, no mess, and can be consumed on-the-go.”
