Empowering the Future of “Smart Orthopedics” with High-Performance Engineering Plastic Profiles
The 24th Chinese Orthopaedic Association (COA) Annual Meeting and the 17th COA Academic Conference (COA2025), organized by the Chinese Medical Association and its Orthopaedic Branch and hosted by the Tianjin Medical Association, was successfully held in Tianjin from November 12–16, 2025.
With the theme “Smart Orthopedics · Expanding New Frontiers,” this year’s conference celebrated the 20th anniversary of COA and the 45th anniversary of the Orthopaedic Branch. The event brought together leading experts from around the world to exchange insights on digitalization, intelligent technology, and material innovation in the orthopedic field.
As an important domestic supplier of special engineering plastics and semi-finished profiles, Dongguan Shengwen New Materials Co., Ltd. was invited to participate. The company showcased its core materials—PSU, PPSU, and PEI profiles, as well as colored engineering plastic semi-finished products—offering high-performance material solutions for orthopedic device manufacturers and medical research institutions. The exhibition highlighted the broad application potential of specialty engineering plastics in next-generation medical devices.
During the exhibition, the Shengwen booth drew numerous experts from hospitals, research institutions, and medical device companies. Visitors showed strong interest in high-temperature-grade, impact-resistant, steam-sterilizable, and FDA-compliant engineering plastic semi-finished products. Several featured materials received particularly positive feedback:
Renowned for excellent heat resistance, hydrolysis resistance, and mechanical strength, PSU is suitable for medical device housings, surgical tool handles, and high-temperature functional components.
With outstanding resistance to repeated steam and ethylene oxide sterilization, PPSU is one of the fastest-growing materials in high-end medical equipment.
Offering high rigidity, electrical insulation, and dimensional stability, PEI meets the strict structural and thermal requirements of precision medical equipment.
Custom colors—including pellets, rods, and sheets—support medical device makers in achieving product identification, branding alignment, and personalized design.
Manufacturers praised Shengwen materials for their excellent compatibility with CNC precision machining, stable mechanical performance, good surface finish, and strong customization flexibility.
All materials displayed by Shengwen comply with strict medical industry certification systems, including:
In orthopedic consumables, spinal surgery tools, and auxiliary components of implant-related devices, engineering plastics continue to demonstrate clear advantages such as light weight, machinability, fatigue resistance, and chemical resistance—offering innovative alternatives to traditional metal materials.
Through the international platform of COA2025, Shengwen not only showcased its comprehensive engineering plastic profile portfolio but also engaged in in-depth discussions with experts regarding future applications in smart orthopedic equipment, including:
Shengwen will continue advancing specialty engineering plastics to support the development of “smart orthopedics,” providing a reliable material foundation and strong technical support for the industry.
The 17th COA Academic Conference concluded successfully, and Shengwen was honored to exchange insights with leading orthopedic experts and explore innovation in orthopedic technologies. Moving forward, the company will continue to focus on the development and manufacturing of PEEK, PEI, PPSU, PSU, and PA12 materials, striving to deliver high-performance and highly stable material solutions for the medical device industry.
