Quadion LLC, d.b.a. Minnesota Rubber and Plastics, a provider of highly engineered elastomer and thermoplastic solutions for the medical device market, is building an innovation center and will be sharing the plans for the first time in person at the Medical Design and Manufacturing (MD&M) West trade show on Aug. 10-12, 2021, in booth #3268.
The new Innovation Center will provide customers with direct access to some of the industry’s foremost materials scientists and engineers in an immersive design-prototype-build-test process. Whether customers engage in-person or online, the result will be the same: a game-changing engineer-to-engineer collaboration experience that helps to bring healthcare innovations to life faster.
“What better place to return to in-person events than MD&M West, where we are set to debut our plans for the Minnesota Rubber & Plastics Innovation Center. We’re excited to show the industry how bringing these processes under one roof will remove weeks from the component development process, resulting in unrivaled production-ready prototyping speed,” said Jay Ward, CEO of Minnesota Rubber and Plastics. “There are two foundational objectives driving our investment in the Innovation Center. First, we want to leverage our unique materials science expertise and design capabilities to engage with customers earlier in their design process. Secondly, we want to transform our business model. Our customers have told us that they desperately need their partners to help them get their new products to market faster. The best way we can do this is to bring our entire production-ready prototyping process —materials science, design, tooling, and precision molding — under one roof.”
The Innovation Center will be a 9,000 sq. ft. facility built adjacent to the company’s corporate headquarters in Plymouth, Minn. Architectural plans have been approved and construction is expected to be completed in Spring of 2022.
During MD&M West, Minnesota Rubber and Plastics will share details about the company’s latest advances in materials science and more about its accelerating investments – such as the Innovation Center – that will take new product engineering to a new level of capability and responsiveness.
