BESPOKE ALUMINIUM FOR THE MEDICAL MARKET
Aluminium products have been used within the medical industry for many years and have improved the lives of countless people through improved diagnosis and treatment.
Predominantly used for larger equipment, aluminium allows for large machines to be lightweight and sturdy. This saves space and allows for more efficient operation and functionality. Aluminium is also used for smaller items and physical therapy machines where weight is directly linked to ease of use.
The ease of extrusion and production of aluminium products allows for fast and precise production of components. These can be ones which are used every day or one off, custom parts for specific injuries.

ALUMINIUM USES IN
THE MEDICAL INDUSTRY
Aluminium is used in the manufacturing of medical devices, surgical instruments, and diagnostic equipment, where precision and reliability are critical. Aluminium’s biocompatibility ensures that it can be safely used in tools that come into contact with the human body.
Its malleability allows the creation of complex designs, making it ideal for prosthetics, mobility aids, and specialised surgical components. Aluminium is also widely used in packaging for pharmaceuticals, such as blister packs and foil wraps, which protect medicines from contamination and extend shelf life.
In medical imaging, aluminium is employed in the construction of X-ray machines and other diagnostic tools due to its ability to absorb radiation effectively. The material’s recyclability further supports the industry’s push towards sustainable practices, making it both a practical and eco-friendly choice in healthcare settings.
