Innovating With Plastics
Meeting Medical Device Manufacturing Demands
 
Plastics in Medical Devices North America is the networking event for the medical device industry, connecting all parts of the supply chain. Get the tools you need to address the hot-button topics in the medical device manufacturing industry, including value-driven engineering, regulatory issues, material and application advances, device design trends, and how the plastics industry is working to combat hospital-acquired infections.

That conference drew more than 275 participants from around the world. The event was repeated this past April in Huron, Ohio, at Sawmill Creek Conference Center.
