Medical Converting Solutions | Industries

Experienced medical converters will help you navigate product development and treat each design as a unique product. Strouse will work with your experts to build high-volume medical die cut solutions focused on long-term performance.

A medical application has multiple goals regarding its performance, compliance, cost, and timeline. These objectives all rely on the adhesive used.

Start by asking, "What do we need this material to accomplish?"

Hold Device Components Together

"Medical device" encompasses a wide range of products that could involve anything from multilayer screen bonding in patient monitoring to advanced foam construction for wound care.

Regardless of the application, these components can be bonded using specialized adhesive tapes.

Custom cut adhesives offer a multipurpose, lightweight alternative to mechanical fasteners. At Strouse, we use these materials to deliver a better value without compromising strength or performance.

Skin Adhesive Device Bonding

At Strouse, we understand that stick-to-skin applications require precision, comfort, and care. Whether you're working with monitoring devices, automatic delivery systems, or other advanced applications, your products need to conform seamlessly to the body—without compromising the skin's health.

Our team specializes in helping you select the perfect adhesive for your needs, offering adhesive solutions tailored for both short-term and long-term applications.

Wound Care solutions

Transdermal Drug Solution Delivery

Transdermal patches effectively deliver drugs, nutrients, and other solutions through the epidermis with prolonged skin contact. Depending on your needs, these materials hydrate or wick moisture.

One popular form of transdermal drug delivery is microneedle patches, which aid in the delivery of drug solutions. Using adhesive lamination, we can die cut complex, multilayer stack-ups that perform drug-delivery, hydration, and other functions.

Rapid Medical Diagnostic Tests

Die cut medical diagnostic components, such as the layers within microfluidic devices, are powerful diagnostic tools; however, it can be challenging for some companies to construct the precise parts consistently enough to maintain proper liquid flow.

For instance, microfluidic devices are created using lasers because they have narrow channels that are difficult to create with traditional tooling.

By using laser cutting services, our engineers are able to meet complex tolerances when precision-cutting pressure sensitive adhesive and other flexible materials.

Medical Labels and Diagrams

In a high-stakes industry like medicine, it's crucial to give your products high-quality labels, instructions, and even traceability information. Skilled converting companies can integrate printing into our custom die cutting and lamination processes to build your product's stack up in a one-pass production process.

Build a Custom Medical Adhesive Tape for Skin Devices

You may discover that the composition or formatting of readily available tape products doesn't fit your application's needs. In this case, manufacturers like Strouse can build a custom tape for you.

Custom pressure-sensitive medical adhesive tapes often consist of a skin-friendly tape laminated to a substrate-specific adhesive that adheres to a medical device.

Cleanroom Die Cutting

Cleanroom die cutting is an efficient process for high-volume projects that require a controlled environment with minimal particulates. Examples include skin adhesive applications, laboratory diagnostics, electronics or optically clear solutions, and more.

Thanks to our ISO-7 certification, Strouse is a medical converting company with the converting capabilities to build your parts in a sanitized, controlled environment intended for safe products.
