Market segments
Healthcare (non-certified)
Homecare
Caring for patients at home instead of staying in the hospital has become an increasing focus for the healthcare sector. Subsequently, the increase in demand for a cost effective alternative to hospital equipment has meant improved development on the homecare market, using plastics such as PBT, PA and EVA in various applications.
Labware
The ease of sterilisation of labware and the ability to produce parts in large quantities means that plastics can be the most cost effective option and adhere to the regulations needed. As well as medical grade PS and PMMA for some single use applications, Resinex can also offer sustainable solutions such as PLA and PETG.
Packaging
The storage of medical equipment and products requires packaging systems that ensure product integrity.
The key purposes of medical packaging are:
the ability to provide a sterile environment
barrier properties to prevent oxygen and moisture or other contaminants coming into contact with the product
Regulatory compliance is required either through FDA approvals or Pharmacopeia. Tamper evident packaging and child resistant packaging is also something to consider.
Applications
- Testing kits
- Mobility aids
- Respiratory devices parts
- Dialysis machines
- Blood pressure monitors
- Stoma care
- Petri dishes
- Pipettes
- Cuvettes
- Blood tubes
- Blister packaging
- Strip packaging
- Vials
- Ampoules
- Tablet / medicine containers
- Primary and Secondary packaging

Drug delivery devices
Drug delivery devices are for controlled release of therapeutic agents. These are used in various medical settings including hospitals and clinics. However, there is also a focus on getting people out of the hospital and back home which is where the medical development of drug delivery devices are focusing.
Medical devices
The use of plastics in housing applications requires durability and good chemical resistance as well as dimensional stability. With added regulatory approvals and sterilisation requirements in the medical sector, such as FDA and biocompatibility, we have a range of options in our portfolio.
Fluids
Fluid delivery via plastic tubing and storage within plastic vials / film need sterilisation and biocompatibility approvals.
Resinex can offer a range of materials to comply:
Polystyrene and acrylic are used for their clarity.
Medical PE for the ability to manufacture thin film for bags and fluid handling systems.
Medical thermoplastic elastomers for their flexibility
Just some examples of materials available at Resinex
Surgical Tools and Instruments
Surgical instruments made from plastic instead of metal has grown in the medical industry. The ability to offer biocompatality and sterilisation with lightweight properties means that the likes of polycarbonate, polyphenylene sulphide, polypropylene and EVA are positioned.
