VitaCoat Open-Source Hydrophilic Coatings Now Available on Chamfr

Published 8 hours ago via Business Wire

VitaCoat is now available for purchase on Chamfr, a one-stop marketplace for engineers and manufacturers to instantly connect and purchase off-the-shelf components. This launch supports VitaCoat’s initiative to simplify access to open-source hydrophilic coating.

Chamfr is a vital resource that empowers engineers with the tools to develop life-changing medical devices, tackling the frequently challenging task of finding and obtaining components. Hydrophilic coating is traditionally a fragmented, hard-to-source component in the development process, and VitaCoat offers engineers an easy solution to their device coating needs.

Hydrophilic coating is a surface treatment that reduces surface tension by attracting and spreading water. VitaCoat offers a price point that is 70% lower than traditionally seen on the market. It also comes with in-house regulatory expertise, fast reformulation turnaround times, and an application process that is simpler, faster, and easier without the need for primers.

Kristian Killian, Regional Vice President of Sales at VitaTek, emphasized, "The introduction of open-source hydrophilic coatings, like VitaCoat, is a game-changer in the medical device industry. By removing the complexities associated with sourcing and applying coatings, we’re enabling engineers and manufacturers to move more efficiently. Open-source solutions drive innovation and promote collaboration within the medical device community, leading to improved patient outcomes and cost-effective solutions."

VitaCoat’s collaboration with Chamfr reinforces its mission: to make the ordering process as painless as possible. Chamfr represents an opportunity to break down industry fragmentation and come together to drive medical innovation forward.

Julie Schulte, Co-Founder & CEO at Chamfr stated, “Chamfr is excited to partner with VitaCoat to make their hydrophilic coating easily accessible to engineers worldwide. With VitaCoat now available on Chamfr, engineers can move forward with confidence, knowing they have the tools they need to simplify their workflow and enhance their device development."
