Sumitomo Chemical aims to support the provision of better healthcare as a material partner that solves social issues through manufacturing that prioritizes people's happiness. 【We contribute to the following concerns】 ■ There are concerns about the stability of procurement for materials used in medical devices, as they are imported from overseas. ■ There are existing materials in use, but there are concerns that their physical properties and prices may be over-specification. ■ We are considering miniaturization and wearability of medical devices, but we are struggling with poor dimensional accuracy and are uncertain about the feasibility of molding and mass production. ■ We want to increase the yield of cultured cells as much as possible, but we don't know how to achieve this. ■ Repeated sterilization and disinfection are necessary, and we have to check for cracks each time, which is cumbersome and troublesome. ■ We are purchasing new products every time a crack occurs, and we are also concerned about the costs involved.

【For such industries and applications】 ■ Engineers who understand the unmet needs in the medical field (People working in medical device manufacturers or startups) ■ Related equipment ・Cell culture (regenerative medicine, biopharmaceuticals) ・Minimally invasive devices (endoscopes, catheters, surgical support robots) ・Low-burden treatments (wearable medical devices) *For more details, please download the PDF or feel free to contact us.
