Medical Technology

Strict evaluation criteria for medical technology products

Constant new treatment technologies pose challenges for the medical industry. Patient safety always comes first. The different qualities of our materials are therefore a treasure trove of possibilities for designers and make plastics the ideal substitute in many applications. In radiology, for example, its radiolucent texture is extremely important. The biocompatibility of plastic means that it will not release toxic substances.

Another plus: The manifold processing options for plastics allow a high level of manufacturing precision. For medical technology, this will of course come in handy. Surface variability and hygiene support are also performance requirements for our customers. We therefore offer you a wide range of plastics certified for the medical industry. Our modern plant is well equipped for series production or for R&D projects.

Requirements for medical technology

Hygiene and sterilisation

Plastics are easy to clean, with say hot air or steam. Their temperature resistance is an huge advantage.

Certification

We offer a wide range of plastics that are certified for medical technology. Our plastic products meet quality standards in accordance with DIN EN ISO 13485.

Traceability

We guarantee the traceability of our products from raw materials to the bill of lading.

Resistant to chemicals

Plastics are particularly resistant to various chemicals such as those used for cleaning and disinfection. This allows plastic products to be used longer than other materials.

Biocompatibility

In accordance with ISO 10993, a large number of our plastics are certified as biocompatible. When there is contact with people, they do not release any toxic substances and do not cause allergic reactions.

Design and feel

Easy to use, slim in design: Plastic has a variety of looks and can be processed in various ways. In the manufacture and design of medical technology products, plastics have vast and often surprising potential.
