Together We Can Create Better Patient Experiences

Formed solutions and KYDEX® thermoplastics set Avasure Telesitter® apart.

Canfield Scientific and HS Design partnered to create the Vectra WB360, the world’s first 3D whole-body imaging system.

There is a need in health care facilities for preventative technologies against pathogenic bioburdens. Those technologies needed durable materials that hold up to strong chemicals and disinfectants, has integral color, and meets UL 94 V-0. Altapure partnered with General Plastics to convert fiberglass covers to thermoformed KYDEX® Thermoplastics. This collaborative case study outlines the processes and materials that led to a successful launch of “The AP-4™, an advanced ultrasonic medical device.

Innovation meets specification at appLab™, where technical services teams will collaborate with you to develop custom concepts we can produce on spec.

At designLab®, explore the interplay of colour, texture, and light. Dive into our rich palette, or we’ll work with you to create the custom colour you envision.

Thermoplastics offer important advantages over fiberglass, sheet metal,high-pressure laminates, and sheet molding.

Thermoplastics are lighter and resist chemical damage and heat, all while giving you the power to transform the look and feel of medical devices with custom colour and welcoming imagery.

The daily rigors of medical facilities — physician and patient usage, severe disinfectants, and chemical reagents — can challenge even the toughest medical equipment. KYDEX® Thermoplastics resist impact, wear and tear, and harsh cleaners and disinfectants.

The thermoplastic sheets we manufacture for medical devices meet industry safety guidelines as well as our own quality standards.

SEKISUI KYDEX takes their commitment to being good stewards of the environment seriously. Lighter aircrafts use less jet fuel leading to reduced carbon emissions. Learn more about KYDEX® Thermoplastics sustainability.

Have you been challenged with matching material performance with aesthetics?When parts for medical device housings are constructed from different processes using different materials, achieving visual consistency among materials can be difficult. Because KYDEX^® IM materials are specifically engineered to match KYDEX^® thermoformed parts, they contribute to the overall seamless aesthetic.

When selecting materials for medical devices, understanding their chemical resistance when exposed to healthcare grade disinfectants is imperative to ensuring a product’s longevity. Learn how the combination of PDI disinfectant efficacy and KYDEX® Thermoplastics durability and chemical resistance work together to extend the life of medical devices.
