“Avalon has developed the technology, knowledge, and expertise to make us the world leader in
cannula manufacturing.”
As a vertically integrated medical device manufacturing company, Avalon Laboratories has developed proprietary technology, knowledge, and expertise to become the world's leading supplier of cardiopulmonary vascular cannulae.
Avalon uses polymer chemistry formulation, spring engineering, and medical tooling and machining to produce hundreds of types of cannulae. Avalon chemists formulate dozens of different proprietary formulations of vinyl, urethane, and urethane blends to create the thinnest wall, highest flow, and best performing cannulae.
Avalon cannulae can be reinforced with round wire, flat wire, or straight wire to meet the most demanding product specifications. Through variations of our proprietary dipping and layering process, we are able to engineer hundreds of cannulae configurations and manufacture millions of components. Avalon performs secondary operations including printing, hole punching, bending, bonding tips and connectors, packaging, and labeling. Our combined knowledge and experience enable us to take a cannula concept and turn it into a finished medical product.
