Natech Plastics has finalised the design, manufacture and assembly of its custom extraction tube, which has been designed for use in diagnostics applications such as COVID-19 testing. 

The injection moulding specialist says this custom product solves supply chain issues for companies specialising in rapid diagnostics tests.

“Our customers shared their struggle in acquiring reliable extraction tubes from the current available suppliers. As a partner in their success, our team went to work to create a functional and customisable solution for the diagnostics industry. Our clients now source extraction tubes domestically from us and have confidence in the quality and performance they receive from Natech,” shares Thomas Nagler, CEO of Natech Plastics.

The extraction tube went through various iterations and rigorous testing to ensure proper quality and part functionality. Testing included material testing, permeability testing, leak testing, and functional testing. The final product has the necessary clarity, ductility, and permeability to service clients in the diagnostics market.

Natech invested in additional technology and equipment to support this product, including testing equipment, filling stations, and foil sealing machines. Clients can customise the extraction tubes to have a foil seal or plastic cap, and custom packaging for their application.
