Our PolyMed™ family of products emerged from the need in the medical community for a variety of fundamental characteristics that only composite materials provide. Product development engineers were looking for lightweight materials that exhibited strong physical characteristics, as well as radiolucent and dielectric properties, thin walls, rigidity and the ability to be sterilized. Poly- Med composite medical tubing meets this stringent criteria, while at the same time being competitive in price to stainless steel.
