Advanced coatings for medical devices produce the durability and performance you need. Whether it’s a wearable device, stick-to-skin tapes and patches, or medical device labeling, the right medical coatings technology can make a big difference in protection and performance.
Protective coatings for healthcare produce significant benefits, including:
Medical-grade coatings are key to patient safety, reducing the risk of contamination and wear to improve medical device durability over time.
Depending on the type of advanced coatings you need for medical devices, there are several different options. Some of the more common coating types include:
Medical devices that benefit from advanced coatings include wearables, catheters, stents, endoscopes, and surgical instruments. For example, antimicrobial coatings on wearable devices help prevent skin reactions, while hydrophilic coatings can improve the ease of use of diagnostic tools.
Tapecon can help you find the right coatings and suggest alternatives where appropriate.
Every component of your medical device must adhere to strict regulatory requirements for safety and performance standards. This increases the complexity, which is why Tapecon’s coating expertise is so valuable. We have decades of experience in creating solutions for the most complex device manufacturing needs with proven processes to achieve an even and consistent coating — even on complex geometries.
Adhesion is critical to avoid product failures. We ensure coatings bond effectively to medical-grade materials without compromising performance. Our processes ensure that coatings do not alter the properties of the substrate or interfere with functionality.
Medical coatings are evolving as well, and their use cases are increasing.
For example, smart coatings can respond to environmental changes for adaptable medical devices, reacting to changes in temperature of PH levels. Nanoscale coatings applications are producing even more precise applications. We’re also seeing breakthroughs in advanced biocompatible materials that mimic natural tissues.
