High Performance, Custom Implantable Textile Shapes

ATEX knows that the shape of implantable medical textiles, including woven fabrics, knitted fabrics, and woven knitted braided or nonwoven structures, is intimately tied to their desired function within the body. These technical textiles encompass a variety of fiber types and are customized to meet the demands of medical devices, such as tubes, tapers, and complex three-dimensional biomedical structures. The shape of a medical component, coupled with material choice and textile construction, coordinates to enhance the overall performance of a product. By aligning the shape of fiber-based medical textiles with attributes such as conformability, material selection, surface features, permeability, strength, and creep resistance, ATEX engineers create implantable medical textiles that perform precisely and predictably in medical devices.

By integrating advanced textile materials and collagen materials, ATEX delivers solutions with exceptional mechanical properties, including strength and creep resistance. Our implantable medical textiles are designed for applications including life-saving devices, leveraging expertise in textiles engineering to achieve precise performance outcomes. From concept to scale production, our engineers collaborate to create innovative solutions that align with anatomical constraints and regulatory requirements. Whether you need custom medical textile products or materials for highly specific implantable materials, ATEX is equipped to bring your ideas to life.

Many of the common medical textile shapes we engineer are shown in the gallery below, along with links to more information about each. If your design has challenging constraints or differs from what is listed, contact one of our technical experts. These examples are just a small sampling of what we can achieve. Over the years, we have created numerous complex biomedical structures and components and are ready to assist you in bringing your medical textiles concept to reality.
