TekniPlex Expands Medical Device Manufacturing Capabilities

Tekni-Plex

WAYNE, PA — TekniPlex Healthcare will present its integrated medical device development and manufacturing capabilities at COMPAMED 2026 in Düsseldorf, Germany, from Nov. 16-19, positioning the Pennsylvania-based company to serve medical technology manufacturers seeking to consolidate suppliers and streamline production.

The company will demonstrate its contract development and manufacturing organization, or CDMO, services, which combine materials engineering, precision component manufacturing and finished medical device production within a single supplier relationship.

The approach addresses manufacturing challenges facing medical device original equipment manufacturers, including complex component specifications, supplier coordination, production scalability and continuity across development and commercial manufacturing.

TekniPlex Healthcare’s portfolio includes custom material formulations, precision extrusion, braiding, molding and catheter manufacturing, allowing customers to source multiple stages of device production through the company.

Its capabilities extend from early product design and material selection through qualification, manufacturing transfer and commercial-scale production.

The company will exhibit at Hall 8b, Booth N02, during COMPAMED, an international trade exhibition focused on medical technology manufacturing and components.

Among the products featured will be precision-extruded single- and multi-lumen tubing, braided catheter shafts, molded components and finished catheters.

The company will also present Nitinol components, implantable device assembly capabilities and design-for-manufacturability services for complex medical applications.

Nitinol, a nickel-titanium alloy used in medical devices, is valued for its flexibility and ability to return to a predetermined shape, making it useful in certain minimally invasive medical applications.

The integrated manufacturing model is intended to reduce the number of supplier transitions required as products move from development into production.

For medical technology manufacturers, coordinating materials suppliers, component producers and finished-device manufacturers can introduce additional qualification requirements and production dependencies.

TekniPlex Healthcare is emphasizing its ability to manage those processes across multiple manufacturing disciplines while supporting regional supply requirements.

“Material and manufacturability decisions drive device performance and scale,” Brian Clarke, vice president and general manager at TekniPlex Healthcare, stated.

“Our technical teams work with OEM design, engineering and manufacturing groups early in development, then support qualification, transfer and production continuity.”

The company’s services include engineering support during initial product development, manufacturing qualification and the transfer of production processes between facilities.

Those capabilities are designed to help customers maintain manufacturing consistency as production volumes increase or supply requirements change.

In addition to medical device manufacturing, TekniPlex Healthcare will exhibit materials and packaging products used in pharmaceutical and consumer healthcare applications.

The portfolio includes barrier protection systems, sealing solutions, liners, gaskets, packaging components and LamePlast containers.

These products support applications requiring material compatibility, product protection and specialized packaging performance.

TekniPlex Healthcare operates a global manufacturing network serving medical technology, pharmaceutical and consumer healthcare customers.

Its participation in COMPAMED 2026 will focus on the company’s ability to combine materials science, component manufacturing and finished-device production as medical technology manufacturers seek greater coordination across product development and supply chains.
