De belangrijkste vraag in het landschap van medische lijmen is; hoe kies je de beste medische lijm om het ene substraat op het andere te bevestigen? Hoe kunt u de efficiëntie en nauwkeurigheid van diagnostische apparatuur verbeteren? Deze vragen moeten altijd al beantwoord worden terwijl uw draagbare apparaat nog op de tekentafel ligt.

Our extensive network of adhesive manufacturers offer a wide range of medical-grade tapes, adhesives and film components already used by medical device manufacturers all over the world. This includes more aggressive tapes, skin-adhesives and closures used in the structure of medical devices made from plastic films, foams and fabrics.

While involving our engineers already at the product conception stage, you can take advantage of this expertise to potentially speed up your design process and creating a prototype or a minimum viable product (MVP) with the best solutions in the market that help improve your device reliability, enhance performance and reduce costs. At the same time, you gain access to our partner’s technology portfolio, which allow you to expand your design options as well as resources that include manufacturing guidance, research and development, and product testing. Whatever product development stage you’re at, we’re ready to help you succeed, by delivering creativity, sharing knowledge and offering our network of adhesive suppliers including Flexcon, Nitto, Avery Dennison, 3M and many more.

Innovatie op elke laag van uw apparaat

Van hoe de geselecteerde materialen samenwerken met de huid tot hoe ze de medische industrie helpen, we zullen ervoor zorgen dat elke laag is ontworpen om comfort, draagbaarheid, conformiteit en algemene prestaties te ondersteunen.

Converting/ Assembly layer adhesives

The carefully selected materials must connect the components of the wearable device. Even though they do not directly touch the skin of the patient, the materials must be compliant with the skin contact layer. Each selected layer need to be laminated in a dust free production area like a cleanroom available at Tacon/Matrix.

 Skin contact adhesives

Huidcontactlijmstoffen verbinden het draagbare apparaat rechtstreeks met de huid van de patiënt. Ze moeten stevig en comfortabel op de huid aansluiten en de huid laten ademen, en ze moeten rekening houden met het vochtgehalte.

Through our extensive network of partners and suppliers we can offer you single coated products that have wear times of 24 hours till 21 days. These wearable tapes have silicone, rubber and acrylic adhesive coatings. Some of these products are coated on Non-Woven carriers (PE, PET and PU). The variables with these non-woven PE, PET and PU is the stretch and breathability of the Non-woven material. Another variable about the non-woven carrier is the ability for the carrier to be sonic welded. PET non-woven carriers are the common material that is used when device manufacturers are sonic-welded the skin contact patch to the actual device. Also the availability exist to have short term wearable single coated silicone tapes as well as foam tape carriers (PE, EVA, PolyOlefin). Wearable foam tapes are a great option for quick stick monitoring devices that are only intended to be on the skin for 3 days or less.
