UFP Technologies, Inc., a producer of innovative custom-engineered components, products, and specialty packaging, expanded its manufacturing operations in Georgetown, Massachusetts. The addition of a new clean room and high volume production equipment broadens UFP Technologies’ substantial medical manufacturing capabilities, company officials said.

The new ISO Class 8 certified clean room will house a custom built high volume line to support its growing line of components manufactured from from medical-grade thermoplastic polyurethane. The TPU components offer a high degree of puncture resistance and flexibility to provide a robust sterile barrier protection. UFP Technologies now has a total five clean environments in Massachusetts.

“Our customers rely on us to continually innovate our manufacturing technologies to meet stringent medical device requirements,” says Mitch Rock, Vice President of Sales and Marketing. “Investing in a new clean room facility and advanced manufacturing equipment allows us to be a valued partner to them.”
