SALT LAKE CITY, UT. (May 1, 2017) – Biomerics, a leading medical device manufacturer for the cardiovascular market, announced today it will relocate to a new corporate headquarters in Salt Lake City, UT. The 230,000 square foot facility will be located in the International Center west of the Salt Lake City International Airport and will include corporate offices, engineering offices, research and development labs, and cleanroom manufacturing.
As the requirements for medical tubing increase, engineers are looking for new solutions that provide the exact tolerances and proprieties they need to be implemented over the entire length of a catheter. In many cases, catheters require different properties from the proximal to distal ends of the catheter. This, coupled with smaller sizes and tighter tolerances is causing extrusion engineers to develop new materials, tooling, and process technologies to develop advanced bump tubing.
Next generation bump tubes designs include:
Biomerics and Medical Alley are pleased to extend an invitation to our upcoming Open House. Bring your colleagues, in fact, bring the whole department if you want and help us celebrate the official opening of our new manufacturing facility in Brooklyn Park, MN.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
BIOMERICS & MEDICAL ALLEY INVITE YOU TO OUR
OPEN HOUSE AND RIBBON CUTTING CEREMONY
Recently, a small group of youth in 7th, 8th and 9th grades recently had an incredible opportunity to attend the VEX Robotic Worlds Championship in Louisville, KY. While at the event, this small group of budding engineers had a chance to put their new-found knowledge to the test and became great ambassadors for the state of UT in this competition.
Welcome to the first of a series of blog posts intended to familiarize you more with the different types of Elastomeric materials; key components in the design, development, and manufacturing of many medical devices.
A couple of weeks ago, we shared some information about 3 different types of Elastomeric Materials that were categorized as medical elastomers and discussed the unique properties of our Elast-Eon family of polyurethane-siloxane copolymers.
Today, we would like to delve a little deeper in to the Elast-Eon family of polymers and provide some more information to help you understand its qualities and key uses in developing medical device products.
The Biomerics Advanced Laser division recently moved into their brand new 4,000 sq. ft manufacturing and R&D space at the beginning of July. Many individuals that supported us during our recent Open House and Ribbon Cutting ceremony, were some of the first to walk through the new facility to see and hear more about what our new division was capable of achieving. In addition to opening our new space, we’ve also hired a number of excellent engineers (with a combined 30 years of experience) who have the knowledge and skills in working with a variety laser manufacturing processes.
The process of Pad Printing is a common practice among medical device manufacturers to print, mark, and brand uniquely shaped medical devices and components. It usually includes a company’s logo and other distinct markings. This type of printing is usually used on devices that are implantable and/or non-invasive in nature.
