drug deliveryDrugs come in diverse forms, requiring delivery devices to span a broad set of formats from injection to inhalation. Safety and patient compliance issues have led to needle-less techniques, improved accuracy/efficiency in drug transfer, as well as aesthetic, miniaturized, ergonomic designs for drug-type identification and consumer appeal/use.

lab wareThe segment encompasses instruments and accessories for the analysis and diagnosis of patient samples, as well as for pharmaceutical and biopharmaceutical research. They range from disposable vials and containers for sample collection, to hand-held instruments, such as pipettors, for sample preparation, to clinical diagnostic equipment for rapid processing/evaluation of many samples.

medical lighting & lensesFocused lighting is critical in healthcare areas from general examination rooms to surgical theaters to dental offices. The generation or avoidance of heat from light sources is important in areas such as an operating room. In other cases, such as infrared therapy lighting, heat generation is desired. Lighting systems utilize a wide variety of components including housings, reflectors, handles and covers.

medical packagingThe industry has recognized the importance of good packaging design, as its role in helping the patient to comply with medication requirements to meet regulatory requirements. we will continually innovate and improve efficiency in this highly regulated healthcare packaging industry.

PerForMaNce coNsideratioNs • Protects products from moisture, light, oxygen, and contaminants

• Solutions also include child-resistance, senior friendly packaging, and foil and non-foil barrier structures

medical traysTrays are used to transport instruments after surgery and to hold them during sterilization. In manufacturing, trays are used to transport vials and other items throughout the facility. Common to all types of trays is impact resistance to withstand unintended drops.

monitoring & imagingMonitoring and imaging devices comprise a very diverse range of applications from hand-held and small devices such as pulse oximeters, blood pressure and other patient monitors to larger transportable devices such as anesthesia delivery and ultrasound, to very large stationary equipment such as x-ray, CT, MRI and PET imaging machines.

nonwoven disposablesNonwoven disposables form an integral part of the healthcare market. Disposability and the flexibility offered by the product to meet specific customer needs comprise the two major factors making nonwovens the fabric of choice over woven fabrics in hospitals.

orthopedicsOrthopedic devices support surgical and non-surgical techniques to preserve and/or restore the musculoskeletal system, limbs, etc. They include external fixators to immobilize the position of bones throughout the healing process.

respiratory therapyThese devices and supporting equipment are used for treating respiratory-related illnesses in hospitals, clinics and at home. Respirators, ventilators, positive airway pressure devices and respiratory masks assist a growing number of patients with ongoing therapy needs.

surgical instrumentsDue to the breadth of surgical techniques, a variety of tools have been developed to support specific procedures. These range from access devices to hand/mechanical and powered instruments for open and minimally invasive surgeries. As devices become smaller and more complex, the need for miniaturized components calls for specialized materials to achieve strength, durability and freedom of design.

FDA Drug Master File (DMF) and/or Device Master File(MAF) Nexeo Solutions works with our suppliers to obtain U.S. FDA Drug Master Files and/or Device Master Files within the FDA’s documentation centers for our “healthcare products.” A Letter of Authorization (LoA) for customer’s reference of our Master Files and for the FDA’s review of our Master Files will be provided upon customer request.

Food Contact ComplianceU.S. FDA (Food and Drug Administration): FDA grades comply with the requirements of the U.S. Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act, as amended, and the regulations put forth by the FDA, covering substances for use as basic components of food contact surfaces.

European Union (EU): EU FC grades comply with the compositional requirement of EU Directive 2002/72/EC, and subsequent amendments, for plastics used in foodcontact applications.

Resin BiocompatibilityTypically, a set of tests performed on a resin to determine if the resin or its extractables will cause potential harm to the human body.

Our suppliers biocompatible grades have been tested and passed either USP/USP Class vI biological tests or tests from the ISO 10993 “Biological Evaluation of Medical Devices”, or similar grades have been so tested and passed.

Nexeo Solutions does not knowingly support the use of grades not designated as “biocompatible supported” in healthcare applications requiring biocompatibility.

Restriction of Hazardous Substances (RoHS) — EU Directive 2002/95/ECRoHS mandates the “restriction of the use of certain hazardous substances in electrical and electronic equipment,” which include lead, mercury, cadmium, hexavalent chromium, polybrominated biphenyls (PBBs) and polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs), except deca-bromine, for E/E products and components placed into the European market after July 1, 2006. Medical devices are not currently within the scope of the RoHS directive, though studies regarding the feasibility of including Categories 8 (Medical Equipment) and 9 (Monitoring and Control Instruments) are underway. we offer materials that allow manufacturers to avoid the use of these hazardous substances.

UL 94, EN 60695-11-10/20, IEC 60695-11-10/20The most widely accepted flammability performance standards for plastic materials are UL 94 ratings. These are intended to identify a material’s ability to extinguish a flame, once ignited. Several ratings can be applied based on the rate of burning, time to extinguish, ability to resist dripping and whether or not drips are burning.

Each material tested may receive several ratings based on color and/or thickness. when specifying a material for an application, the UL rating should be applicable for the thinnest wall section in the plastic part. The UL rating should always be reported with the thickness. Just reporting the UL rating without mentioning the thickness is insufficient. EN 60695-11-10 is the European equivalent of UL 94; IEC 60695-11-10/20 is the international equivalent of UL 94.

waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (wEEE) — EU Directive 2002/96/ECwEEE requires OEMs and component and sub-assembly producers providing electrical/electronics (E/E) products to the EU to collect, recover and treat these products at the end of life. Plastics using brominated flame retardants must be removed and treated separately. To help customers simplify recovery and recycling at end of life, we offer materials that are inherently flame-retardant or that do not contain brominated or chlorinated flame retardants.

general DisclaimerNexeo Solutions does not support applications for any Class III medical devices including most implants. Nexeo Solutions’ technical team is available to help you determine the characteristics of the materials supplied by Nexeo Solutions that may be used for your proposed application, however, ultimately you are responsible for and must make your own independent evaluation and judgment concerning the safety and efficacy of any materials supplied by Nexeo Solutions for use in your healthcare or other applications.
