In clinics and hospitals, KEM ONE PVC can not only be found in the buildings. It forms part of medical equipement.
Medical ally for half a century
PVC has been an ally of health professionals for half a century now. More than 25% of medical equipment manufactured from synthetic materials is made of PVC.
PVC is resistant, flexible, easy to sterilise, chemically stable, well tolerated by the human body and provides a perfect seal. It is used in many public-health applications, several of which are absolutely vital to patients: blood bags, catheters, oxygen masks, surgical gloves, sterile packaging, tubes and conduits.
PVC is the only plastic material authorised by European pharmacopoeias for packaging and storing blood.
