Luponax – firstly called Plastics then renamed as BioMedical – is a specialist in white room plastic injection moulding for the medical sector. In the next few years, this sector will be making more use of plastics due to the multitude of benefits:
-
The optimisation of asepsis rules: Ease of cleaning and decontamination, disposable properties for certain materials.
-
The development of new treatments, in particular for orphan diseases, kidney diseases, etc.
-
Progress and continuous innovation on these materials:
Bio-compatibility, bio-degradability, nanotechnologies, sterilisation capacity, etc. -
Improvement in the quality of care: Outpatient surgery,
Fight against nosocomial infections -

Innovative solutions are born from this innovation process. As an example, the syringe designed and developed by Luponax BioMedical for Biomatlante, who manufacture and distribute 100% synthetic dual-phase bone substitutes. This company designed an injectable synthetic bone filler material. It needed a specific syringe to be able to inject the dual-phase material (liquid and powder) into the patient.
The syringe had to offer features such as ensuring the homogeneity of the two phases and the sterility of the material during preparation. Together with the Biomatlante project team, the Luponax BioMedical R&D team optimised the manufacturing process and developed the product design. Lastly, each company's quality department integrated the regulatory requirements in terms of bio-contamination risk right from the design phase.
ISO TS 16949, an international standard applicable to automobile makers. Quality is an essential component of our policy: Material vigilance, qualification, product control, traceability.
