Materials for every project
For over 60 years Spectrum Plastics has manufactured a wide range of materials for our medical device partners. From high performance thermoplastic elastomers and fluoropolymers, to materials like PVC, polyolefins and silicone, we can manufacture all melt-processed thermoplastic resins in both natural and compound variations—if it melts, we process it!
Our application knowledge and on-staff material scientists allow us to support you with material selection and polymer formulation for your medical device application. We can provide feedback on specifications and factors such as processability, biocompatibility, sterilization, kink resistance, and bonding.
An extensive background in medical tubing extrusion and advanced extrusion technology enable us to extrude a wide range of materials:
