Vacuum forming is a manufacturing process with applications across a remarkable breadth of industries. The medical and healthcare sector is one of the most demanding — requiring components that meet strict hygiene, material, and dimensional standards. At Jabro Games, we have the capability and experience to produce vacuum formed components for healthcare applications.
Sterile Packaging and Blister Packs
Thermoformed packaging is ubiquitous in the medical sector. Blister packs and clamshells protect individual medical devices, instruments, and consumables from contamination and physical damage. These are typically formed from PETG or PVC, both of which offer clarity, chemical resistance, and compatibility with sterilisation processes.
Trays and Organiser Systems
Hospitals and clinics rely on vacuum formed trays to organise and transport surgical instruments, consumables, and equipment. Custom-formed trays ensure that components are held securely in defined positions, reducing handling time and the risk of damage.
Prosthetics and Orthotics
Vacuum forming is central to the production of custom prosthetic shells and orthotic devices. The process allows complex anatomical shapes to be reproduced accurately from patient-specific moulds, producing lightweight, durable, and well-fitting components.
Material Compliance
Medical vacuum forming requires materials that comply with relevant biocompatibility standards. We work with clients to identify appropriate materials and can provide documentation to support regulatory submissions where required.
