Materials of the highest quality and durability are required for the manufacture of technical and hygienic aids in the medical field. PLEXIGLAS® and EUROPLEX® for medical technology products and hygiene protection devices meet these requirements and also offer other advantageous properties - for example, good thermal formability.
EUROPLEX® PPSU sheets and PLEXIGLAS® / EUROPLEX® films are mainly used in the field of medical technology; for example, for storage systems for surgical instruments, for sterilisable containers or for customisable orthopaedic products. PLEXIGLAS® sheets, in turn, are ideal for hygienic partitions and enclosures. The robust material is also optionally available with an antimicrobial coating.
Laboratory-grade material: PLEXIGLAS® fulfills the requirements placed upon optical quality, hygiene, miniaturization and ergonomics in laboratory and analysis technology.
Optional as hygiene protection: The robust, easy-to-clean acrylic sheet is mainly used for partitions, enclosures or as spit protection.
EUROPLEX® PPSU
Ideal for instrument containers: EUROPLEX® PPSU sheets are preferred in the medical sector for systems for storing surgical instruments.
Virtually indestructible: The break-resistant, impact-resistant, hydrolysis- and chemical-resistant material withstands more than 1000 hot steam sterilisation cycles.
Individual shape, size and colour: The material is thermally mouldable and thus offers a decisive advantage over pointed casting. It is therefore also suitable for individual series of instrument or implant containers entirely according to your needs.
EUROPLEX® O
High-quality orthopaedic material: EUROPLEX® O is the material of choice for customised shoe insoles and other orthopaedic aids, e.g. orthoses.
Easy and precisely adaptable: The sheets can already be formed from approx. 90°C and easily machined with standard tools.
High wearing comfort: The easy-care material is transparent and has only a slight inherent colour. Pressure points on the skin can be easily detected and immediately corrected.
PLEXIGLAS® PMMA and EUROPLEX® COC films are used as cover layers in microfluidic chips that require optical clarity, thermal stability, and reliable sealing. They support controlled fluid behavior and stable operation across diagnostic and analytical applications.
PLEXIGLAS® PMMA film is typically selected when surface-driven flow and processing simplicity are important.
EUROPLEX® Cyclic Olefin Copolymer (COC) film is selected when signal stability and environmental resistance are required.
High-precision fabrication: Our modern fabrication facilities enable high-quality cuts in optical quality.
Precision and hygiene are the be-all and end-all in the laboratory, be it in medicine, pharmacy or environmental technology. In addition, many processes require optical process control. PLEXIGLAS® offers many properties that are important here.
Mobile mini-labs that fit on the surface of a credit card, microreactors for biochemical processes and chips that simulate organs - microfluidics makes many things possible that were previously unthinkable. PLEXIGLAS® and EUROPLEX® films from POLYVANTIS also play a role in this technology.
