Published On: May 18, 2010

Secant Medical™, an industry leader in design, development, and custom manufacturing services for biomedical textiles, has announced that it has expanded its manufacturing capacity by adding a 40,000–square–foot facility in Quakertown, Pa., to support current and future business growth as a result of market development trends in tissue engineering and transcather technologies. In addition, the company has redesigned its entire methodology for custom–developing and manufacturing products for medical device manufacturers, its newly named Integrated Product Development Process.

“Secant Medical is taking these proactive steps in capacity expansion and process changes to manage existing and future business growth,” says Steve Chadwick, president and CEO. “The newly acquired facility allows us to more aggressively address expanding supply needs in the biomedical textiles field. At the same time, our new product development process ensures we can remain aligned closely with clients’ development requirements, from concept through commercialization, despite rapidly growing markets.”
