Foams

High Performance Medical Foams for Healthcare Applications

Medical-grade foams are essential in a wide range of healthcare products, offering comfort, protection, absorption, and performance in both skin-contact and device-related applications. These engineered foams are designed to meet the rigorous requirements of medical environments—from wound care and wearable devices to surgical components and medical equipment.

Engineered for comfort, Function, and Compliance

In healthcare applications, foams must do more than provide structure—they must be, conformable, breathable, and reliable under critical use conditions. Medical foams are available in open-cell or closed-cell formats, offering a variety of performance characteristics such as moisture management, cushioning, and fluid absorption.

Foam Applications Across Medical Markets

Medical films are used in countless applications where performance, precision, and patient safety are non-negotiable. Some common uses include: 

Medical foams serve both functional and comfort-driven roles in a variety of healthcare products:

Wearable Devices – Used for gasketing, cushioning, CGMs, insulin pumps, and biosensors

Wound Care – Absorbent foams for exudate management and atraumatic dressing changes

Surgical & Procedural Products – Foams for patient positioning, surgical equipment or cushioning during procedures

Diagnostics & Devices – Spacers, gaskets, and barriers in fluidic cartridges and test systems
Medical Packaging – Protective foam inserts and seals for fragile or sterile products
