Creating Better Outcomes.
Creating solutions for the healthcare industry demands exacting standards and rigid compliance. Because when materials come in contact with the body or packaging contains medical or surgical equipment, safety and quality mean everything. There is an ever-present need to balance performance with risk mitigation, and we take our responsibility to help you manage that balance seriously.
Why Spartech?
Spartech brings 50+ years of proven expertise in developing resins and manufacturing materials that deliver durability, heat resistance, aesthetics, manufacturability, and regulatory compliance. Our materials will not only meet your technical packaging and equipment needs — they’ll transform your product outcomes.
Not only will we help manage your risk, we also step in when emergency situations arise. For example, in 2020, our team collaborated to develop critical Covid-19 packaging that could withstand below-zero storage temps and perform globally. Our commitment to operational excellence and innovation can serve you, too.
Looking for enhanced features or new product development? Let us help that effort with a full suite of services for development, prototypes, production, and testing with our expert team at our world-class Innovation Center.
