Trinseo – sharing knowledge at Medtec Europe 2016

Trinseo is sharing its stand at Medtech Europe with Velox - distribution partner for medical resins

Trinseo has served the global medical devices market for nearly three decades. Part of the Dow Chemical Company until 2010, the company offers worldwide production and fulfillment, recently announcing its medical compounding capability in Asia Pacific to complement existing compounding in Europe and North America. These facilities are sourced with polycarbonate base resins from Trinseo’s medically-equivalent resins produced in Germany and from its joint venture partner Sumika Styron Polycarbonate, in Japan.

Trinseo is also showing its high performance plastics for single and multiple-use devices and equipment housings.

These materials are designed to address some of the industry’s critical challenges, including the miniaturisation of medical instruments, the increase in home healthcare and point-of-care treatment, and the need to produce lighter weight devices.
