Slipmate Coats All of Your Medical Tools and Technology
Slipmate applies Teflon™ and other materials to a variety of medical applications, including:
Lubricious Coating: Because Teflon™ has non-stick and anti-static properties, it is essential to ensuring medical applications do not cause static of any kind when inserted into organic tissue. For instance, Slipmate applies Teflon™ to catheters.
Hydrophilic Surface Coating: In addition to resisting static, Teflon™ also has remarkable anti-water properties, which allows it to aid surgical, medical, and research tools like microscopic sponges in their tasks.
Antimicrobial Coatings: Slipmate applies antimicrobial coatings to a variety of medical tools that prevent the spread of deadly diseases and infections like E.coli. Antimicrobials kill 100 percent of all bacteria and fungi.
Surgical Equipment: It is vital that surgical equipment remain static free. This enables surgeons to more efficiently do their jobs, but also prevents contaminants of any kind from forming on scalpels.
Medical Devices and Machinery: Teflon™ and other coatings ensure critical biomedical equipment operates at peak efficiency.
