MATERIALS FOR
Healthcare Applications
Since the 1960s, we have worked closely with our customers to develop materials designed to pass USP Class VI Biocompatibility and ISO 10993 standards, often custom-formulating a material to optimize performance.
​
To help navigate ever-changing regulatory requirements, we provide experienced regulatory advice - including formulations without reportable plasticizers. From product conception through commercialization for for years after, you can put our experience to work for you!
What are you making?
Choose from our proven portfolio or ask us to create a material with your specific performance requirements.
For over five decades, we’ve collaborated with healthcare manufacturers to develop high-performance compounds that meet stringent regulatory and functional requirements. Our portfolio includes food-contact-compliant PVC, TPU, and TPE formulations specifically designed for healthcare applications where biocompatibility, chemical resistance, and mechanical reliability are essential. These materials are engineered to support critical performance in medical environments while aligning with evolving global standards. As your technical needs advance, our material science and application expertise are here to help you stay ahead—delivering precise solutions, on time.
