GEMÜ Medical
Leading the Way in Injection Moulding

GEMÜ Medical is a leading player in the medical technology sector, known for delivering custom high-quality plastic solutions, such as valves and measurement and control systems, that cater to the specialised demands of the medical, pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries. With over 2,500 employees and six production facilities worldwide, GEMÜ Medical has solidified its global presence, delivering critical solutions to clients in more than 50 countries.

Central to GEMÜ Medical’s operations is its expertise in plastic injection moulding. It uses advanced injection moulding machines with clamping forces ranging from 35 to 450 tonnes, allowing it to produce intricate components required for cuttingedge medical technologies. Each element is crafted in thoroughly maintained cleanroom environments, ensuring the highest hygiene standards are upheld and the integrity of sensitive medical products is safeguarded.

Setting GEMÜ Medical apart is its ability to handle the entire product lifecycle, from producing individual components to delivering fully packaged, ready-to-use assemblies, which simplifies the process for its international clients—allowing them to trust GEMÜ Medical for everything from development to final delivery.

A perfect example of this holistic approach is the development of the Luer Vial—a modular packaging and application system. Designed to meet the growing demand for efficient drug delivery, the Luer Vial showcases GEMÜ Medical’s promise to innovation. The system was created to extend the shelf life of active ingredients while reducing overall costs.

The Vial’s aseptic filling feature protects sensitive substances, ensuring they remain potent for longer periods. Its user-friendly design allows for precise administration and is adaptable for oral, intranasal or even topical applications like tissue adhesives. With its standardised Luer connection, the system offers seamless compatibility with existing healthcare equipment, making it practical and efficient for a wide range of uses. The Luer Vial’s impact has been more than just conceptual. A pharmaceutical company struggling with spoilage and inefficiencies in their packaging found a solution in the Luer Vial. Not only did spoilage drop by 25 percent, but process costs also decreased by 20 percent. The straightforward design also improved safety and accuracy, transforming what was a packaging problem into a streamlined solution that benefitted both the company and its patients.

GEMÜ Medical’s promise to quality is backed by its certification under ISO 13485, which ensures compliance with strict global standards across the medical, pharmaceutical and biotechnology sectors. Products manufactured by the company are used in everything from surgeries to diagnostics, all produced in state-of-the-art cleanrooms certified from ISO Class 6 to 9, ensuring the highest levels of hygiene necessary for producing life-saving technologies.

When a medical device manufacturer encountered a critical challenge—creating sterile, biocompatible components for patient monitoring devices in high-risk ICU environments— GEMÜ Medical’s approach was put to the test. Drawing on its deep understanding of ISO 10993 compliance, the team collaborated closely with the manufacturer to design and produce injection-moulded parts that exceeded sterility and durability expectations. The outcome? A rapid product launch, with the devices reaching the market faster than anticipated, while the reliability of GEMÜ Medical’s solutions allowed the manufacturer to scale production seamlessly, turning a complex challenge into a strategic advantage.

GEMÜ Medical’s work shows how practical innovation and strict quality standards can transform healthcare operations. From solving complex packaging issues to ensuring sterile, biocompatible components for critical devices, the company’s solutions are directly impacting efficiency and patient safety. GEMÜ Medical’s ability to meet both industry demands and unique client challenges positions it as a key force in advancing medical technology, ensuring that healthcare providers can deliver safer, more effective care worldwide.
