FET
Fibre Extrusion Technology Ltd (FET) of Leeds, UK will be exhibiting for the first time at COMPAMED 2024 in Düsseldorf to reflect the company’s increasing profile in the medical sector.
FET is a specialist in medical fibre technology and innovations, designing and delivering high performance equipment for a range of precursor medical products. This includes turnkey solutions for nonwoven medical devices, wound care and dressings and synthetic absorbable sutures.
FET’s established expertise lies in laboratory and pilot melt spinning equipment for a range of applications, specifically precursor materials used in high value medical devices and specialised novel fibres from exotic and difficult to process polymers. FET says it has successfully processed over 100 different polymer types and its systems can melt spin resorbable polymers in multifilament, monofilament and nonwoven formats, collaborating with specialist companies worldwide to promote greater sustainability through innovative manufacturing processes.
Where melt spinning solutions are not suitable, FET says it provides a viable alternative with pilot and small scale production wet and gel spinning systems. The company says its range of laboratory and pilot extrusion lines is ideally suited for both process and end product development of sustainable materials.
“Last year we celebrated FET’s 25th anniversary,” said FET’s Managing Director Richard Slack. “We look forward to meeting customers at COMPAMED 2024, where we can discuss their medical and fibre technology needs."
This show takes place in Düsseldorf, Germany between 11 – 14 November 2024 and FET can be found in Hall 8b Stand N36.
