FAQ - Healthcare & Wellness

The choice of adhesive for medical devices depends on a number of parameters: the application surface (skin, film, sensor), the desired duration of adhesion, the biocompatibility of the material, and resistance to moisture or perspiration. Silicone or hydrocolloid adhesives are preferred for their comfort on the skin, while acrylics offer longer wear. At ADDEV Materials, formulations are tested and cut in clean rooms to guarantee safety, comfort and reliability.

Compliance is based on the selection of films and adhesives suitable for microfabrication processes and on assembly in a controlled environment (ISO 7/8 clean room). Materials must be chemically stable, have low autofluorescence and be non-reactive with biological samples. ADDEV Materials supplies COC/COP, PET or PC films that comply with European standards to ensure precision and reproducibility in diagnostic devices.

Pharmaceutical labelling must meet three challenges: traceability, durability and regulatory compliance. Adhesives must withstand sterilisation cycles, solvents and extreme temperatures, while substrates (PET, PP or technical paper) must guarantee legibility and security of the marking. ADDEV Materials offers FDA- and cGMP-compliant solutions for securing European pharmaceutical flows.

Our production sites are ISO 13485 certified and equipped with class 7 and 8 cleanrooms. These environments enable laser cutting, lamination and assembly of sensitive medical materials while controlling particles and contamination. Each batch is traceable and controlled according to a strict quality protocol, guaranteeing that our medical devices comply with European standards.

Care or hygiene devices are often in prolonged contact with the skin, so it's essential to use soft, breathable, hypoallergenic films to limit irritation. Breathable adhesives help to evacuate moisture and improve comfort of use. ADDEV Materials develops solutions combining skin comfort, durability and safety for cosmetic patches and single-use hygiene products.

Having certified sites on both sides of the Atlantic ensures proximity, responsiveness and local compliance. For European manufacturers, this means simplified logistics, controlled lead times and technical support in their time zone. For North American customers, it means FDA compliance and regulatory support in line with European standards.

Our support starts at the design stage: technical feasibility, choice of materials, rapid prototyping and validation. The teams then convert the products in a clean room, followed by packaging and certified logistics. This integrated approach speeds up time-to-market and makes industrial production of medical and well-being devices more reliable.

The durability of a skin adhesive depends on its chemical formulation (acrylic, silicone, hydrocolloid), its behaviour in prolonged contact with the skin, and its ability to maintain its adhesion despite moisture and movement. Compatibility with barrier films and sealing foams must also be considered, as well as the precision of the cut. ADDEV Materials develops multilayer solutions tested to guarantee comfort, safety and performance in ostomy appliances.

The choice of optical film depends on the type of analysis being carried out. For fluorescent tests, low autofluorescence films such as COC or COP should be preferred, as they provide optimum optical clarity and dimensional stability. Solvent and temperature compatibility must also be checked, as well as the possibility of laser cutting without distortion. ADDEV Materials supplies this type of film in custom formats, validated for European research environments.
