With the Bormed range of polyethylene (PE) and polypropylene (PP) grades for rigid and flexible products, we ensure a consistent approach to the medical and healthcare market that is independent of conversion technology or polymer type. The broad Bormed grade range meets the technical requirements of a wide variety of end uses, including those for medical devices as well as pharmaceutical and diagnostic packaging. I want to talk to a SALES MANAGER I want to talk to a TECHNICAL EXPERT DOWNLOADS Subcategories Dedicated polyolefin solutions for Healthcare applications The combination of versatility, cost competitiveness and easy shaping during conversion make PP and PE the materials of choice for medical devices such as syringes, catheters, needle hubs and protectors, inhalers, filter housings, blood collection systems, IV solutions, SVP, LVP, dialysis bags, microwell plates, microcentrifuge tubes, pipette tips. As medical devices evolve, new materials are required to meet ever more stringent demands such as high transparency, steam and radiation sterilisation, and the production of highly complicated moulds and shapes. Using the best possible materials is essential in order to secure the device and its contents, thereby safeguarding the health of the patient. The Bormed™ Concept The Borealis Bormed Concept ensures that the customer’s healthcare business is carried out in a reliable and meaningful way with respect to the needs of the industry. Going beyond pharmacopeia compliance documentation and technical service, the Bormed Concept gathers insights from value chain partners and incorporates these into all Bormed processes, from product conception to production, procurement, support and distribution. It is based upon on the principles of Service, Commitment and Conformance: Service: because proactive and clear communication, global support and thorough market understanding form the foundation of successful cooperation in the healthcare industry. Commitment: because choosing the right partner matters in terms of security of supply, both in the short and long term. Conformance: because comprehensive change control and maintaining consistency of the variables used to make polyolefins for the healthcare markets is essential in the safeguarding of continued regulatory compliance with European, US Pharmacopeia and ISO standards. Within Borealis there is a clear senior management commitment to Healthcare as a strategic segment, as evidenced by the growing, dedicated team of Healthcare specialists. We engage in a dialogue with our customers for all Healthcare applications with the exception of permanent implants. This practically means that higher risk applications (i.e. medical devices classes IIb and III) are still evaluated and therefore can benefit from the Bormed concept. What does Bormed really mean?
