Specialist high frequency welding company Speed Plastics will be at MEDICA 2023 to showcase its range of engineering and OEM services offered to healthcare companies, including its recent investment in Europe’s largest high frequency welding machine.
Over the last year, the company has invested nearly £1m in state-of-the-art machinery, including a bespoke 100 kilowatt Zemat Mega Welding Machine.

As well as manufacturing its own range of pioneering products, Speed Plastics also offer customers bespoke engineering solutions.
