Medplast has completed an expansion of its 50,000-square-foot facility in Tempe, AZ. The site includes two Class 100,000 cleanrooms that house injection molding and automated assembly operations. The former general molding and tool maintenance areas have been transformed into white room manufacturing.
The Tempe site is a medium- to high-volume medical manufacturing facility. Its primary products include injection molded products, including disposables. As a result of the stringent manufacturing requirements of customers, the entire facility has been upgraded, including the tool room where mold maintenance can be conducted in a clean environment that is separate from design and construction.
The renovation of the site gives Medplast greater capacity for cleanroom molding and enables the company to more effectively serve its customers in the Western United States and Mexico. The company also announced upgrades to its facilities in Pennsylvania and New Jersey. Medplast also has facilities in Iowa and Wisconsin. Its five locations house more than 375,000 sq ft of manufacturing space.
