Medical device components play a critical role in the development of life saving technology. Yet, how well do you know your component suppliers? It’s been well-documented that the more you understand these critical components, the more efficient and effective your devices become. One of these critical components is UHMWPE fiber. Learn about the benefits of using UHMWPE for your device design and development and how to identify a high-quality UHMWPE supplier. Not only will this help you develop longer lasting sutures through UHMWPE's superior wear performance, it will also help you select UHMWPE suppliers that can help you decrease your regulatory risk enabling lower design and development costs.
