Whitford Corporation expands its coatings business by establishing medical coatings group

摘要

WHITFORD Corporation, a manufacturer of fluoropolymer coatings for industrial and consumer industries, announced the establishment of a new medical coatings group dedicated to support the use of its coatings on medical devices. The use of fluoropolymer coatings on medical devices have been historically dependable and offer many great benefits, despite a select few localized application issues that recently lead to FDA device recalls. Whitford's medical coatings group is in development, based at the company headquarters in Elverson, PA; the operation will occupy a newly constructed facility that is expected to be fully operational by 3rd quarter 2015.
