Enable Injections Inc., the developer and manufacturer of wearable medical devices that enable easy patient self-administration of high volume injectable drugs, has entered into a product development and manufacturing partnership with Flex, the global sketch-to-scale solutions company that designs and builds intelligent products for a connected world.
As part of the deal, Enable Injections and Flex will collaborate on the design, development and production of customized wearable injector systems for pharmaceutical company products and clinical trials.

We are proud to have been selected as Enable Injections’ manufacturing partner, and thrilled to be helping bring innovative, high quality wearable medical devices to the pharmaceutical and biotech industries."
According to Enable Injections, the company's novel injectors – based on pain-free injection technology and preferred by patient panels – provide customers with numerous advantages, including:
- Subcutaneous delivery of up to 50mL doses of high volume and/or viscous biologics
- Ability to monitor compliance and capture data utilizing optional Bluetooth connectivity and a mobile app to provide a connected healthcare solution
- Passive warming of drug product, eliminating the 30-minute wait for refrigerated vials to reach room temperature
