Featured Products

Pressure-Sensitive Adhesives
A supplier of structural adhesives for medical devices offers a range of UV and epoxy adhesives. Formulations are available for bonding needles and tubing sets. Designed to offer accelerated cure times and reduce stress cracking, the adhesives can also bond dissimilar materials.

 

Adhesive Dispenser
A dispenser is designed to precisely, repeatably, and quickly deposit UV-cure adhesives on PVC, ABS, and other medical-grade polymers. Custom bushings carefully deposit the adhesive onto the internal or external surfaces of medical tubing and components.

 

Nonwoven with Silicone-Gel Adhesive
A single-coated nonwoven product features a skin-friendly silicone-gel adhesive. The Rx1306P material is designed for use in a range of direct-skin applications, such as neonatal care, medical device attachment, wound care, hypertrophic scar management, and skin therapy.
