Plastics solutions for medical technology
Materials and finished parts that meet the most stringent requirements
Ensinger one-stop shop for medical technology
The best possible quality of life and mobility well into old age, and the desire for a long life with as little pain as possible – these major trends in the medical industry are leading to an increase in surgical procedures and new treatment options.
Consequently, demand for innovative medical-grade plastic components is growing. Combined with rising cost and regulatory pressures, as well as increasingly stringent regulations – particularly regarding biocompatibility, traceability and documentation – this poses major challenges for medical device manufacturers. Physiological safety, even during brief patient contact, is also becoming an increasingly important focus.
Ensinger supports medical device manufacturers with tried-and-tested plastics for medical technology, ranging from certified semi-finished products to finished, customised components. Product safety, patient benefit and cost control are always at the forefront.
Your one-stop shop for medical plastic components
As a full-service provider of plastics for the medical sector, Ensinger covers the entire value chain in-house. From an extensive selection of materials and compounding, through extrusion and machining, to injection moulding and profile extrusion. This broad spectrum of manufacturing processes for medical technology plastics offers our customers the highest levels of quality, safety and flexibility, and thus a wide range of possibilities for developing innovative medical devices right through to the finished component.
Together with our customers, we develop and manufacture medical-grade plastic components that are precisely tailored to their requirements. From the initial contact and material selection, through the choice of suitable manufacturing technology, to the implementation of downstream processes and quality assurance. Patient safety is our top priority: both in the selection of physiologically safe materials and in the assessment of biocompatibility properties in accordance with ISO 10993.
Ensinger Medical Grade plastics, identified by the abbreviations MT or MED (compounds), meet the highest compliance standards in terms of documentation, traceability and change notifications. This ensures our customers benefit from a seamless transfer of data and knowledge during product approval worldwide.
