Non Implantable PEEK Polymer

Solutions

Non-implantable PEEK solutions

Invibio, part of Victrex plc, specialises in implantable PEEK solutions for long-term medical implants and devices that are in contact with human tissue. Victrex has continually pioneered new PEEK-based polymers, materials and solutions that have transformed markets, delivering global impact in the toughest environments, including for non-implantable medical devices.

Non-implantable

Victrex focuses on PEEK & PAEK polymers, considered the world's highest performing thermoplastics and has a range of medical grade non-implantable polymers including films, tapes and fibres. Their polymers are strong, temperature resistant, friction and wear resistance and have a low dielectric strength and can be used in medical devices that will not be in contact with human tissue.

PEEK properties

A multi-talent with proven performance

PEEK polymers are well suited for extreme and demanding environments, whether in the form of powder, pellets, or compounds or forms and parts. The light thermoplastic can support multiple requirements at the same time – to solve material limitations in applications, often replacing metals, and to meet cost-efficiency and sustainability needs.
