  • Surgery
  • Diagnostics
  • Therapy
  • Intensive care medicine/respiration
  • Dental medicine

Semi-finished plastic products tested for use in medical technology facilitate the approval of our customers' medical technology products. For this reason, all semi-finished products with the suffix 'MT' (medical technology) in their designation have been tested for biocompatibility in accordance with ISO 10993. The order-related issue of the biocompatibility certificate therefore not only contains information on the conformity of the raw materials, but also the results of the corresponding tests carried out on the semi-finished product in accordance with ISO 10993. The order-related issue also ensures complete traceability from the customer order to the semi-finished product to the raw materials used.
