ProMed has provided contract manufacturing services supporting long term and short term implantable components and assemblies for over three decades. Whether the application is lifesaving or life enhancing, our commitment to supporting the implantable device industry has never wavered.
Silicone elastomers have a long history of use in implantable device applications, with the first being a hydrocephalus shunt in the 1950’s. Since then, it is arguably one of the most well researched biomaterials to date and been utilized in a wide variety of therapies. Today, implant grade high purity plastics such as PEEK, polycarbonate and polysulfone are also available for use as viable biomaterial candidates.
