Medical Devices and Drug Delivery

Manufacturers are creating smaller, more technically advanced diagnostic devices, each with a requirement for high quality IVD test strips. Adhesive tapes offer many advantages for manufacturing test strips. They are easier and faster to apply, and do not damage other test strip components. Tapes are also able to generate a sufficient and well defined thickness of the test strip.
