Customized Packaging for Medical

Moisture intrusion can lead to reduced performance or even complete failure of electronics. Some medical devices utilize electrical connections with glue or epoxy to create a seal. But due to their organic nature, they wear out over time, making them unsuitable for reliability-critical medical applications. In contrast, SCHOTT offers truly reliable, hermetically sealed components made with inorganic, non-aging materials – such as glass, metal, and ceramics – which offer durable seal integrity, even under extraordinarily harsh environmental surroundings.

Reliable, customized designs – that’s what we stand for

Gas-tight sealing

SCHOTT is the leader in glass-to-metal sealing technology, with unmatched expertise in manufacturing custom vacuum-tight assemblies.

Ultra-miniaturization

The latest technological developments offered by SCHOTT Primoceler enable chip-size components smaller than 1 millimeter.

Autoclavable for thousands of cycles

Our electrical connectors have been tested to withstand more than 3,500 sterilization cycles at 134°C.

Flexible customization

Our R&D experts will work with you to enable fully customer-specific designs. The components are typically adjusted in terms of size, shape, materials, number of I/Os, and interconnects, amongst others.
