Our medical molding service allows you to leverage the speed-in-development you are used to in the high-requirement environment of the medical space. Our team of medical molding manufacturing experts helps you take FDA Class I and II devices, or non-implantable components, quickly from prototype to production and is viable through regulatory body submissions.
Medical Molding Capabilities
> Certification: ISO 13485 (Strategic partnership)
> Clean Rooms: Class 8 rooms available
> Steel tooling: P20 and hardened steel available
> Process Validation: Achievable by standardized qualification package, industry-accepted protocol, or customer-defined
Available Medical-Grade Plastic/Resins
We carry the most common types of plastics and resins used in medical molding. We can also accommodate customer-supplied resins and provide custom color matching.
Customer Supplied Resin: Need to use a material that we don't stock? No problem. Simply fill out this form to supply your own resin.
Custom Colorant: We can also develop custom colorant to match a Pantone color or physical sample. The process is simple and fast. After we receive your color request, we’ll send you a sample plaque for approval in as fast as three days. Learn more here.
