The Society of Plastics Engineers (SPE) is organising the First European Medical Polymers Conference, at Queen’s University Belfast, in September 2008, and in keeping with the Society’s aims and objectives, the Conference will focus on many of the technical issues associated with the processing and performance of polymers used in the medical devices industry today. The medical device and health care industries worldwide are experiencing year on year growth, particularly in Europe, and the industry now uses an ever increasing range of polymers, copolymers and polymer blends. These polymer materials in their many different forms play a vital role in the design, functionality and reliability of medical devices.
