– PolyOne Corporation (NYSE: POL), a premier global provider of specialized polymer materials, services and solutions, will showcase its dynamic range of technologies for the healthcare industry at Medical Design and Manufacturing (MD&M) West 2015 this week. Color and design services: InVisiO℠ services and solutions help brand managers and designers leverage color design to reinforce brand recognition, communicate quality and favorable emotional associations, and increase functionality of their products by making the device easier or more intuitive to use.

The end results are a perfect balance of color accuracy, vibrancy and opacity for peak press performance and color design.  Designed for ease of printing on a manual press without tiring the press operator, EPIC Rio inks are also appropriate for larger production runs with an automatic press. Wilflex continued to make history twenty years later, when it provided design freedom allowing hundreds of color options with the introduction of the first plastisol mixing system.

Stagg connected with PolyOne for help with tough UL standard testing approvals and light dispersion issues in their initial design, problems that would jeopardize a planned 2016 product launch schedule. PolyOne’s team worked with engineers at Halo Smart Labs to incorporate two Resilience LS materials that would meet tough UL flame requirements and improve light distribution without disrupting the initial design parameters. North Carolina-based Halo Smart Labs’ singular focus is to design products that make the world a safer place.

The Karibu bathtub is designed for the space limitations of city living and for convenience when traveling. The patented foldaway design enables easy storage without sacrificing a full-size tub for infants. Designers chose Versaflex TPE to mold the folding portion of the tub and provide a non-slip surface on the bottom of the tub legs.
