Design & Build

Suture Manufacturing Process

One of our largest projects involved development of a complete process for manufacturing of absorbable sutures. A true “Green Field” project, we were initially approached with literal napkin sketches. Over the following 4 years, we first developed the R&D equipment, then pilot plant and finally a production facility capable of supplying 50% of world market for absorbable sutures. At it’s culmination over 250 people were dedicated to this hyper-fast-track project.  Utilized here, Steinmetz was also one of the first organizations to produce 3D renderings and animations from engineering drawings to visualize factory floors and processes.
