Engineered for Excellence in Medical Materials
For today’s medical device innovators, the choice of material directly shapes product performance, regulatory compliance, and market success. Beyond meeting stringent standards, materials must deliver exceptional mechanical strength, processability, and sterilization compatibility—all while ensuring patient safety and reliability.
LG Chem’s leadership in the global medical materials market is built on a robust portfolio of advanced Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene (ABS) and Polycarbonate (PC) solutions, engineered to meet the industry’s most demanding requirements.
- Versatile and Reliable ABS – As the world’s No. 1 ABS supplier, LG Chem offers trusted solutions such as General ABS (HF380-M), valued for durability and chemical resistance in applications like dental chairs. For components that demand both clarity and strength, Transparent ABS (TR558A-L) delivers optimal performance in products such as autoinjector housings.
- High-Performance PC – Designed for critical applications, LG Chem’s polycarbonate grades provide superior impact strength, heat resistance, and optical clarity. Recognizing the importance of sterilization, specialized grades are tailored for Ethylene Oxide (EtO) and steam compatibility (PC2001-10), as well as gamma sterilization resistance (PC2080-20)—ensuring material integrity is preserved under the toughest conditions.
A Total Solution Partnership
LG Chem goes beyond being a material supplier—it operates as a Total Solution Provider, delivering comprehensive support from concept to commercialization. Through global customer solution centers, clients gain direct access to technical expertise in injection molding, processing optimization, and material troubleshooting. This collaborative approach helps manufacturers reduce project risks, improve production efficiency, and accelerate time-to-market.
Supply stability is a core strength. Dedicated production lines for medical materials ensure consistent quality and uninterrupted availability, supported by a reliable global logistics network. This infrastructure allows partners to plan with confidence, even in times of global supply chain disruption.
Sustainable Innovation with LETZero
LG Chem is also committed to shaping the future of eco-conscious healthcare through its LETZero brand—a portfolio of recycled and bio-based materials designed for high-performance medical applications. Using advanced Post-Consumer Recycled (PCR) and bio-balanced technologies, LETZero materials deliver virgin-quality properties while significantly reducing carbon footprint and fossil fuel dependency. Backed by globally recognized certifications such as ISCC Plus, these solutions enable manufacturers to meet environmental goals without compromising on product performance or regulatory compliance.
For manufacturers aiming to define the next generation of medical devices, partnering with LG Chem means gaining access to a complete ecosystem: advanced materials, deep technical support, supply chain reliability, and sustainable innovation leadership.
