Custom plastic medical tubes, rods and hoses

The production of high performance medical tubes require high standards of safety, functionality and treatment efficiency. Additionally, materials used must also meet high quality standards for biocompatibility and simultaneously be able to withstand aggressive disinfectants, harsh chemical environments and sterilisation processes.
With over 50 years of experience in the extrusion of high performance plastics and manufacturing of medical tubes, we understand the needs of the medical industry and can help you find the right solution for your application. In addition to our extensive portfolio of stock shapes, we offer custom sizes to produce medical tubing to your exact specifications. 

Custom Medical tubes to the highest quality standards

The basis and starting point for the optimum quality and performance of our custom tubes is the use of the right material. High performance plastic tubes have a number of properties that make them ideal for a wide range of medical applications. The most relevant material properties for medical technology that we can cover with our comprehensive MT portfolio are:
  • Biocompatibility and Sterilisability
  • High resistance against chemicals, corrosion and pressure
  • Light weight
  • Heat formability and Bendability
  • Laser markability
  • Recyclability
