Medical technology – easy to sterilize and resistant to chemicals
Polycarbonate-based films are widely used in medical and laboratory technology because of their suitability for sophisticated and innovative design concepts.

Their outstanding properties also satisfy strict safety and hygiene regulations and tough mechanical requirements. Makrofol®, for example, has such high heat resistance that it can be sterilized using media such as superheated steam. A further advantage of our films is their excellent resistance to the disinfectants and cleaning agents in everyday use in the medical industry.

Our Makrofol®, Bayfol®, Marnot™* and ProTek™* medical technology films comply with current international standards such as ISO 10993-1 on the biocompatibility of plastics that remain in contact with body fluids and tissue for up to 30 days.

It is extremely important to us that medical technology manufacturers consider us a reliable partner. We therefore safeguard the long-term availability of our medical technology films, ensure reliable delivery and supply binding assurances that the formulations for these films will remain constant.

The following selected case studies demonstrate typical medical technology applications for our films:
