The 2023 Products of the Year
I
n December, we asked Medical Design Briefs readers to cast their
ballot to choose from our 10 Products of the Month the technology
they felt was the most significant new introduction to the design
engineering community in 2023. This year, our two winners
both focus on materials designed to address the special needs of
the healthcare industry. Here are the winners of the 2023 Medical
Design Briefs' Readers' Choice Products of the Year.

n Single-Use Materials and Services
Trelleborg, Fort Wayne, IN, has launched a family of products,
materials, and services for fluid path single-use equipment designed
to accelerate the advancement of life-changing therapies.
The BioPharmaPro™ solutions are created from a portfolio of materials
including silicones, other elastomers, thermoplastics, and
composites that can be manufactured into tubing, custom molded
components, and processing columns
up to full assemblies, and much more.
Offerings range from individual single-use
components to complex assemblies and
full biopharmaceutical
systems
meeting
functionality,

As medical devices have evolved, we have advanced our capabilities
to meet your increasingly complex design requirements. Backed by
nearly 80 years of proven manufacturing expertise and a laser focus
on minimally invasive surgical instruments, MICRO delivers the highest
quality components and complete devices, whether hand-held, rigid,
articulating or robot-assisted.
n Flexible Biomed Resins
Formlabs, Somerville, MA, has introduced
three healthcare-focused materials
to its library. BioMed Elastic 50A
Resin, BioMed Flex 80A Resin, and IBT
Flex Resin are designed to streamline
workflows and reduce labor time. The
two BioMed materials will expand the
applications for 3D printing in healthcare,
reducing the time and costs associated
with traditional production methods,
such as molding. These materials
are suited for long-term skin contact and
short-term mucosal membrane contact
for flexible patient-matched medical device
components, comfortable medical
devices, as well as tissue medical models
for surgeons to reference in the operating
room. IBT Flex Resin is designed
with tear-resistant, accurate, and transparent
properties for dental applications,
including 3D printed direct composite
restoration guides and indirect
bonding trays.
