First Aid Systainer

Love the idea of the internal divider, I do have concerns over cost though. Looks like the varios tend to be pretty expensive - I'd be perfectly fine with something like the universal one. I would not pay more than $100 for a Sys-I with an insert, even if it is a more flexible insert.

I would also like a price before committing, but I am interested in a Sys1. LV has some dividers that are reasonable in price, but I have not looked to see if any fit this particular application. I think they may have too many small compartments.
 
I would be interested as well in the red sys1 with the white latch.  Keep us posted.
 
Thank you for the continued feedback and vote of support, I do appreciate it as I take a bold step and add this custom item to the Systainer.Store. 

It looks like I'm narrowing in on the following:
8xxxxxxxx :: systainer T-Loc I (carmine red body, white T-LOC and Handle)
81200323 :: Vario 2 insert with 6 dividers
81200230 :: systainer lid insert EPP (Expanded Polypropylene) 5mm
Sticker decal, yet to be design & specified and priced

I hear your comments about price.  Looking at list price on the above, and having not priced the sticker sheets yet, the total comes out to $97.5.  So, yes, it is under the $100 mark without medical supplies.  It will be a while before I need to finalize on price.  Systainer.Store has a free shipping on $100 order or more, so perhaps I could list right at $100 and include the free shipping.  Or maybe I set up some sort of preorder scheme where if I can get enough commitments on preorders I'll give everyone some discount.  Hmmm - it is dangerous to be thinking out loud here as there is more I need to cost out.
 
The order from Germany is confirmed.  Alexandra from Tanos USA worked her magic and delivered some renders that we can look at till the product arrives in June.  While we wait, I'll get working on some sticker designs and bounce them off you guys.  Also, in another day or two I'll cook up a "expression of interest" survey so you can sign up.  I'll likely send out preorder invites to reserve stock once we get closer.  I don't want anyone committing or buy until I get closer and know what the sticker design is.

Looks great! Can’t wait to see it with the stickers you’re working on.

Hey [member=44099]Cheese[/member] ,

If you don't mind the branding/advertising, I can get you one (or more) of these:

Me too, I wish I had the MINI in all red. If we did a large enough preorder (100s), we may be able to convince Tanos.
I did order red latches for the MINI, so I can put those on the grey systainer to test as a small First Aid envelop.

Well thanks to Oliver 🙏 , we know Tanos is already producing them for Endel & Dietze so acquiring the colored resin/pellets isn't an issue. I wonder if you could piggy-back off of their next order. So for the next production run, Tanos would just mold some extra red minis and ship them to your address.

That way there's no up-charge for changing the resin color and probably not a minimum quantity.

It's very similar to what happens in powder coating. There's no up-charge to shoot a particular color if they are already shooting it for a particular customer/order.
 
Good idea Cheese, just need them to set a bunch aside so they're not silkscreened with the logo.
 
If Tim can order colored Mini's starting at 100 pieces, that's also much better than the current 400 pieces minimum order for colored Minis on the German Tanos site.

I have also seen all red Minis without branding before, but couldn't locate any available stock.

Kind regards,
Oliver

This is fair thinking about the MINIs.

In looking at other colored Systianers, it was made very clear to me the we can't get Systainers with a color that is produced for another brand.  That makes sense, I don't wan't a "trademark" color.  If it is a generic color, yes, but not a specific colors.  For instance, Fein has a specific orange and that is different than that Tanos Orange.  Tanos Orange is easily orderable, Fein orange is only orderable by Fein and in the 1000s.  If we want a custom color, it would be in the 1000s.

I'm not sure about this specific brand mini, I'll have to research more and ask.  I'm thinking multiple 100s, hoping for less than 1000.  Just 100 I don't think is enough.  But again, we can build a "case" for this.  Tanos USA was willing to go to bat for us on the SYS-I set up and I'd love to order more of those to show demand and being a good partner with the systainer community. 

Let me make progress on SYS-I labels/stickers and then circle back to the minis.

FWIW...the standard color red that Tanos molds Systainer items in is Carmine Red, RAL 3002.
 
ISO has defined a white "plus" on a green background as the official first aid symbol. See also ISO 7010 Reference E003. It might be different in the US, but in most countries I have visited (quite a few) this symbol was indeed used in preference over the red and white combination. I have not found a formal colour designation, but this is what I use: Pantone PMS 356C. Close approximations are CMYK 100,0,91,27 or RGB 0,186,17 or HEX 00BA11. Most often, but not always, I see this green symbol on an orange background. This colour was probably chosen to be in conformance with both the OSHA and ANSI guidelines a.o. These organisations have not assigned formal colour codes to their recommended colours, as far as I know.

In case anyone is interested I have attached a template you can use to print stickers that fit a mini systainer.

Just curious where you purchased the red Mini?
