MicroCare Medical, developer of high-purity engineered fluids for medical device manufacturing and reprocessing, will spotlight its expanded portfolio of lifecycle-spanning chemistries at MD&M West 2026 in Anaheim, California, February 3 to 5, 2026.
“Our customers are looking for solutions that go beyond the manufacturing floor,” says Venesia Hurtubise, vice president of technology and compliance at MicroCare. “They want fluid partners who understand the full lifecycle of a medical device – from precision cleaning and assembly to clinical reprocessing and sterilization prep. At MD&M West, we're proud to showcase a complete, high-performance portfolio that improves productivity, supports compliance, and delivers the repeatable, reliable results engineers and clinicians depend on.”
MD&M West attendees should stop by Booth #558 to:
- Receive personalized technical guidance
- Request process evaluations
- Watch live product demonstrations
- Meet experts who can help match chemistries to specific materials and device applications
- Discuss developing customized formulations and processes to solve your challenges and needs
Medical device reliability begins long before a product is used in a clinical setting and continues long after. Every stage demands high-performance fluids that protect sensitive materials, streamline workflows, and support patient safety. Trusted by leading medical device manufacturers, OEMs, and distributors, MicroCare Medical is uniquely positioned to meet these demands with a comprehensive suite of validated, sustainable, and high-purity specialty formulations supporting every stage of the medical device lifecycle – from concept and manufacturing through clinical use and long-term reprocessing. MicroCare Medical experts understand the importance of precision and efficiency and therefore, the solutions MicroCare offers ultimately mean speeding up the assembly process, expediting production, and simplifying stringent validation requirements to ensure device manufacturers can achieve new measures of speed, efficiency and reliability.
Highlights from the MicroCare Medical product portfolio supporting a full-lifecycle advantage for OEMs and distributors include:
Engineered fluids for R&D, manufacturing & assembly:
Validated technologies make it possible for manufacturers to build devices with greater reliability, smoother performance, and a significant reduction in production variability. These technologies leverage advanced chemistries, including Tergo XCF3 Precision Cleaning Fluid, Duraglide Dry Lubricant, Swellex Tubing Assembly Swelling Fluid, and Universal Carrier Fluid.
Fluids for clinical instrument care & reprocessing:
Once devices and instruments reach clinical settings, consistent reprocessing becomes essential for ensuring safety and extending instrument longevity. The Spec Clean Instrument Care line supports sterile processing and dental teams with a complete range of chemistries, including pre-treatment solutions that prevent soil from drying, manual and automatic washer cleaning formulas that reduce bioburden, ultrasonic detergents designed for complex or delicate geometries, instrument lubricants that protect hinges and joints, and sterilization-prep tools that ensure surfaces are clean and ready for effective sterilization.
Spec Clean strengthens OEM and distributor relationships by extending support beyond installation, helping clinical customers maintain devices safely over years of use.
