AMENDED MEMORANDUM OPINION & ORDER
JOSEPH R. GOODWIN, UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGEIt is ORDERED that the court’s November 18, 2016, Memorandum Opinion & Order [ECF No. 17] is amended for minor typographical changes.
*578Pending before the court is Coloplast Corp.’s Motion to Dismiss on the Pleadings [ECF No. 11]. The plaintiffs responded [ECF No. 15] and Coloplast Corp. replied [ECF No. 16] making the Motion ripe for adjudication. For the reasons set forth below, the Motion is GRANTED in part and DENIED in part.
I. Background
This case resides in one of seven MDLs assigned to me by the Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation concerning the use of transvaginal surgical mesh to treat pelvic organ prolapse (“POP”) and stress urinary incontinence (“SUI”). In the seven MDLs, there are more than 58,000 cases currently pending, approximately 500 of which are in the Coloplast Corp. (“Colo-plast”) MDL, MDL 2387.
On February 10, 2009, Ms. Hatfield was surgically implanted with Coloplast’s Suspend-Tutoplast Processed Fascia Lata (“Fascia Lata”), a device manufactured by Coloplast to treat SUI and to reconstruct the pelvic floor. Short Form Compl. ¶¶ 9-10 [ECF No. 1]. Ms. Hatfield’s surgery occurred at Mercy Medical Center in Canton, Ohio. Id. ¶ 11. Ms. Allen claims that as a result of implantation of the Fascia Lata, she has experienced multiple complications. She adopts the following counts as alleged in the First Amended Master Long Form Complaint and Jury Demand (“Master Complaint”): I—negligence, II—strict liability design defect, III—strict Lability manufacturing defect, IV—strict liability failure to warn, V—strict liability defective product, VI—breach of express warranty, VII—breach of implied warranty, VIII— fraudulent concealment, IX—constructive fraud, X—discovery rule and tolling, XI— negligent misrepresentation, XII—negligent infliction of emotional distress, XIII—violation of consumer protection laws, XIV—gross negligence, XV—unjust enrichment, XVI—loss of consortium, and XVII—punitive damages. Id. ¶ 13. According to the Master Complaint, Coloplast “designed, patented, manufactured, packaged, labeled, marketed, sold, and distributed a line of pelvic mesh products,” one of which was an allograft, the Fascia Lata. First Am. Master Compl. ¶¶ 22-23 [ECF No. 49, MDL 2387]. Coloplast admits in its Joint Master Long Form Answer and Affirmative Defenses to Plaintiffs’ First Amended Master Long Form Complaint and Jury Demand (“Master Answer”) that it “generally packaged, labeled, marketed, sold[,] and distributed” such pelvic mesh devices. Master Answer ¶ 22 [ECF No. 62, MDL 2387]. The Fascia Lata device is “dehydrated, ... processed fascia lata from donated human tissue.” See Def.’s Mot. Dismiss on the Pleadings Ex. B, at 1 [ECF No. 11-2] (“Package Insert”). The Fascia Lata is preserved such that it “retains the three-dimensional collagen structure responsible for the unidirectional, mechanical properties of the original fascia lata tissue.” Id.
II. Legal Standard
“[T]he Rule 12(c) judgment on the pleadings procedure primarily is addressed to .., dispos[e] of cases on the basis of the underlying substantive merits of the parties’ claims and defenses as they are revealed in the formal pleadings.” 5C Charles Alan Wright & Arthur R. Miller, Federal Practice and Procedure § 1367 (3d ed. 2004). A motion under 12(c) is useful when only questions of law remain. Id.
[A] Rule 12(c) motion is designed to provide a means of disposing of cases when the material facts are not in dispute ... and a judgment on the merits can be achieved by focusing on the content of the competing pleadings, exhibits thereto, matters incorporated by reference in the pleadings, [and] whatever is *579central or integral to the claim for relief or defense ....
Id. Rule 12(h)(2) provides that the defense of failure to state a claim upon which relief can be granted may be raised in a motion for judgment on the pleadings. Fed. R. Civ. P. 12(h)(2). If this is asserted in a Rule 12(c) motion, the district court will apply the same standards for granting the appropriate relief or denying the motion as it would have employed had the motion been brought prior to the defendant’s answer under 12(b)(6). Wright & Miller, supra, § 1367; see Exec. Risk Indem., Inc. v. Charleston Area Med. Ctr., Inc., 681 F.Supp.2d 694, 706 n.17 (S.D. W. Va. 2009) (“[T]he standards under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 12(c) for a motion for judgment on the pleadings are identical to those applicable to a Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 12(b)(6) motion to dismiss.”).
A motion to dismiss filed under Rule 12(b)(6) tests the legal sufficiency of a complaint or pleading. Giarratano v. Johnson, 521 F.3d 298, 302 (4th Cir. 2008). A pleading must contain a “short and plain statement of the claim showing that the pleader is entitled to relief.” Fed. R. Civ. P. 8(a)(2). This standard “does not require ‘detailed factual allegations,’ but it demands more than an unadorned, the-defendant-unlawfully-harmed-me accusation.” Ashcroft v. Iqbal, 556 U.S. 662, 678, 129 S.Ct. 1937, 173 L.Ed.2d 868 (2009) (quoting Bell Atl. Corp. v. Twombly, 550 U.S. 544, 555, 127 S.Ct. 1955, 167 L.Ed.2d 929 (2007)). “To survive a motion to dismiss, a complaint must contain sufficient factual matter, accepted as true, to ‘state a claim to relief that is plausible on its face.’ ” Id. (quoting Twombly, 550 U.S. at 570, 127 S.Ct. 1955). To achieve facial plausibility, the plaintiffs must plead facts allowing the court to draw the reasonable inference that the defendant is liable, moving the claim beyond the realm of mere possibility. Id. Mere “labels and conclusions” or “formulaic recitation[s] of the elements of a cause of action” are insufficient. Twombly, 550 U.S. at 555, 127 S.Ct. 1955.
III. Discussion
The plaintiffs assert that Colo-plast’s Rule 12(c) Motion to Dismiss on the Pleadings is truly a Rule 56 Summary Judgment Motion because Coloplast has attached exhibits for the court’s consideration. However, when deciding a 12(c) motion, the court may consider “the content of the competing pleadings, exhibits thereto, matters incorporated by reference in the pleadings, [and] whatever is central or integral to the claim for relief or defense.” Wright & Miller, supra, § 1367. Of Coloplast’s attached documents and the plaintiffs’ referenced evidence in their Response, . the court will only consider the package insert marked as Exhibit B to Coloplast’s Motion because it is integral to the claim for relief and defense. See Package Insert. The package insert offers a product description and a warranty statement which are pertinent to the claims at hand—specifically the breach of warranty claims. See id. at 1; Short Form Compl. ¶ 13. The evidence the plaintiffs put forward in their. Response, the content from Coloplast’s website, is not part of the content of the pleadings, an exhibit thereto, incorporated by reference in the pleadings, or central or integral to the claims. Therefore, it will not be considered. Further, Coloplast attached the Short Form Complaint as Exhibit A to its Motion. See Def.’s Mot. Dismiss on the Pleadings Ex. A [ECF No. 11-1]. This is a pleading and must be considered by the court, and accordingly has no transformative power. Thus, Coloplast’s Motion is not a Rule 56 Summary Judgment Motion.
Next, this court applies the substantive tort law of the state where the plaintiffs implantation occurred—in this case, Ohio. *580In re: Ethicon, Inc. Pelvic Repair Sys. Prod. Liab. Litig., No. 2:12-cv-760, 2016 WL 3067752, at *2 (S.D. W. Va. May 31, 2016); Short Form Compl. ¶ 11. The claims are addressed below.
a. Strict Liability and Breach of Warranty (Counts II—VII)
Coloplast argues that it is immune from the plaintiffs’ strict liability and warranty claims alleged in Counts II-VII by virtue of Ohio’s blood and human tissue shield statute which states:
[T]he procuring, furnishing, donating, processing, distributing, or using of human whole blood, plasma, blood products, blood derivatives, and products, corneas, bones, organs, or other human tissue except hair, for the purpose of injecting, transfusing, or transplanting the fluid or body part in another human body, is considered for all purposes as the rendition of a service by every person participating in the act and not a sale of any such fluid or body part. No warranties of any kind or description are applicable to the act.
Ohio Rev. Code Ann. § 2108.30. Where a statute such as this one clearly defines the “procuring, furnishing, ... or distribution” of blood and human tissue as “the rendition of a service,” there can be no sale of a product subject to products liability actions.1 See Morse v. Riverside Hosp., 44 Ohio App.2d 422, 339 N.E.2d 846, 851 (1974) (“By virtue of R.C. 2108.11, the procuring, furnishing or distribution of human whole blood or blood products is declared for all purposes to be a rendition of a service by every person and it declared not to be a sale a matter of law.”). Additionally, case law applying Ohio Rev. Code Ann. § 2108.11 mandates the same conelusion. See, e.g., Zaccone v. Am. Red Cross, 872 F.Supp. 457, 460 (N.D. Ohio 1994) (“In Ohio, the procuring, processing, distributing, or using of human blood or blood products ... is a service.”).
The plaintiffs’ warranty claims also fail by the plain language of the statute: “No warranties of any kind or description are applicable to the act.” Ohio Rev. Code Ann. § 2108.30. Further, the Fifth Circuit has explained:
It is axiomatic, of course, that breach of express warranty is not available as a cause of action without a sale, because the essence of warranty is a consensual agreement—express or implied—arising from contract. Without a sale under contract, there is no consensual nexus between the parties and thus no warranties may attach.
Heirs of Fruge v. Blood Servs., 506 F.2d 841, 846 (5th Cir. 1975) (citation omitted) (interpreting a statute defining tissue as a medical service and expressly exempting contracts for the sale of human tissue from breach of warranty claims); see also Condos v. Musculoskeletal Transplant Found., 208 F.Supp.2d 1226, 1227 & n.1 (D. Utah 2002) (recognizing that the analysis for breach of warranties claims is the same as strict liability.).
The Restatement of Torts gives even more credence to the idea that human tissue is not a “product” and thus not subject to products liability claims. The Restatement (Third) of Torts elaborates on products liability law in the context of human tissue and states: “Human blood and human tissue, even, when provided commercially, are not subject to the rules of this Restatement.” Restatement (Third) *581of Torts § 19(e) (Am. Law Inst. 1998). This update clarifies that human tissue, such as the allograft in this case, is not a “product” and is consistent with the nationwide policy against applying strict liability to the distribution of human tissue. See id. at § 19(a)-(c), cmt. c.
Where the statutory language varies modestly between jurisdictions, the public policy behind blood and human tissue shield statutes remains the same. On this matter, the California Court of Appeal stated:
[Legislatures have determined that the production and use of human blood and its derivatives for therapeutic purposes should be encouraged; and for this purpose those who provide these products, and who are themselves free from fault, should not be required to bear the economic loss which might otherwise be imposed under the rules of strict liability which are applicable to sellers of commercial products generally.
Cryolife, Inc. v. Super. Ct., 110 Cal. App.4th 1145, 2 Cal.Rptr.3d 396, 405 (2003) (emphasis omitted) (quoting Hyland Therapeutics, Inc. v. Super. Ct, 175 Cal.App.3d 509, 220 Cal.Rptr. 590, 594 (1985)). Moreover, there is “a nationwide antipathy over applying produets-liability or strict-liability concepts to body parts such as blood and tissue.” Palermo v. LifeLink Found., Inc., 152 So.3d 1177, 1181 (Miss. Ct. App. 2014). Indeed, “no court has ever applied strict liability to the distribution of human tissue.” Condos, 208 F.Supp.2d at 1229; see Palermo, 152 So.3d at 1181.
According to the Master Complaint, Co-loplast “designed, patented, manufactured, packaged, labeled, marketed, sold, and distributed a line of pelvic mesh products,” one of which was an allograft, the Fascia Lata. First Am. Master Compl. ¶¶ 22-23. Coloplast admits in its Master Answer that it “generally packaged, labeled, marketed, sold[,] and distributed” such pelvic mesh devices. Master Answer ¶22. Thus, it is not in dispute that Coloplast distributed the Fascia Lata allograft. Per its labeling, the allograft is “dehydrated, Tutoplast processed Fascia [L]ata from donated human tissue.” Package Insert 1. The plaintiffs do not dispute this fact either. Because there is no dispute as to whether Coloplast distributed processed human tissue, the Fascia Lata, no discovery is needed to determine whether the statute applies, as the plaintiffs suggest.2 Coloplast’s actions are plainly covered by the statute and must be considered a “service.” Public policy, precedent, and the plain language of the statute all dictate that the plaintiffs’ strict liability and breach of warranty claims must fail.
The plaintiffs further argue that discovery is needed to identify other conduct that may allow a claim for strict liability to go forward. It is well-settled law, however, that the scope of discovery may not exceed the boundaries of the complaint. See Cuomo v. Clearing House Ass’n, LLC, 557 U.S. 519, 531, 129 S.Ct. 2710, 174 L.Ed.2d 464 (2009) (“Judges are trusted to prevent ‘fishing expeditions’ or an undirected rummaging through ... records for evidence of some unknown wrongdoing.”).
Therefore, Counts II-VII of the-plaintiffs’ Amended Short Form Complaint, which correspond with Counts II-VII in the Master Complaint, are DISMISSED with prejudice.
*582b. Remaining Claims (Counts I, VIII-XVII)
Given the plaintiffs’ Steering Committee’s impending motion to amend the Master Complaint contemplated in the plaintiffs’ Response, the nature of a short form complaint, and for reasons appearing to the court, the Motion is DENIED at this time as to all other claims (Counts I, VIII-XVII).
IV. Conclusion
For the reasons stated above, it is ORDERED that Coloplast’s Motion to Dismiss on the Pleadings [ECF No. 11] is GRANTED in part and DENIED in part. The Motion is GRANTED with respect to Counts II-VII and is otherwise DENIED at this time. Counts II-VII are DISMISSED with prejudice.
The court DIRECTS the Clerk to send a copy of this Order to counsel of record and any unrepresented party.
. The term "products liability” is used in reference to both strict liability and breach of warranty claims. See 63 Am. Jur. 2d Products Liability § 625 (2010) ("An action for products liability may be brought under several theories, including ... strict liability, and warranty.”).
. The court acknowledges that Coloplast’s status as a commercial distributor does not change the applicability of the statute. Human tissue and blood shield statutes have been interpreted to apply to for-profit entities. See, e.g., Coffee v. Cutter Biological, 809 F.2d 191, 193 (2d Cir. 1987) (interpreting Connecticut’s human tissue and blood shield statute’s use of "blood bank” to include commercial manufacturers and distributors).
