Polymer Medical will expand operations near Buffalo, New York, with a $1.5 million investment that will create 15 new skilled jobs.
The medical device company will offer injection molding and assembly services, producing critical drug- delivery systems, medical and pharmaceutical disposables, devices for homecare and orthopedics, and specialty packaging.
The announcement was made today by Invest Buffalo Niagara, a nonprofit, privately-funded economic development organization representing the eight counties of Western New York.
According to Polymer Medical President Ben Harp, the expansion will add new technology to record data from all the equipment in the cell for making each part. Harp says the capability will help with continuous improvement efforts.
