Methods

Coating capabilities for medical and skin-contact applications.

  • Knife-over-roll

    A coating method used to apply pressure-sensitive adhesive materials evenly across compatible substrates.

  • Gravure

    A controlled coating process for medical, healthcare, industrial, and consumer adhesive applications.

  • Pattern coating

    Discontinuous adhesive patterns for breathability or zoned bonding. Used in breathable wound dressings and pattern-printed wearable constructions.

  • Zone coating

    Adhesive applied to selected regions rather than full coverage for constructions with different functional areas.

Toll coating

Sample preparation, coating evaluation, and material testing.

DermaMed supports sample preparation, coating evaluation, and material testing processes aligned with application and compliance requirements.

Material fit

Identify pressure-sensitive adhesive materials aligned with adhesion, wear time, flexibility, moisture management, and device compatibility.

Coating options

Pattern and gravure coating, zone coating, multilayer lamination, inline corona treatment, and knife-over-roll coating.

Production support

Move from samples and coating evaluation toward production with the quality controls required for medical applications.
