No Visual Compromises: Delivering Color Harmony for an Award-Winning Medical Device

The customer needed visible molded components that upheld strict design standards for an award-winning bowel care device. Achieving color harmony across dissimilar resins (ABS and TPE) was a critical challenge, as each material behaved differently in translucency and pigmentation. Americhem developed custom masterbatch formulations that delivered consistent translucent purple and cool grey finishes, ensuring a cohesive, high-quality appearance without visual compromises.

Avoiding Launch Delays: How Americhem Enabled Fast, Flexible Material Support for a New Surgical Headset

The customer needed a battery housing that combined high flow for complex molding with impact strength and gloss finish to ensure durability and comfort during long surgical procedures. At the same time, the housing had to deliver precise color consistency across two different healthcare-grade polymers (PC and ABS) while meeting regulatory standards. To keep their launch on track, they required small-lot deliveries that could support rapid prototyping, validation, and scale-up without disrupting the timeline.
