Medical Tubing

Altec have a long history of production of products for the medical industry. It has capability on small-bore, close-tolerance Tubing (down to 0.1mm bore), production of specialist medical materials in clean conditions and co-extruded striping. Altec can also provide cutting, printing and packaging services.

Altec have over 30 years experience in manufacturing Plastic & Rubber Extrusions, Extruded Profiles and Tubing. We're quite rightfully proud of our reputation for consistently meeting the needs of customers over that time. Because we've remained small and focussed we've also remained more attentitive, more cost effective and more responsive than larger manufacturers.
