Led by Eco Polymer, with the collaboration of Weigao Group, the General Hospital of the People's Liberation Army, Soochow University, and other institutions, the project "Research, Development, Production, and Application of PMP Hollow Fiber Membrane for Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation" has been successfully selected in the first batch, marking a new stage in the development of new biomaterials for medical use in China!
On July 19, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology (MIIT) officially announced the evaluation results of the 2023 National Development Plan for New Biomaterials for Medical Use:Eco Polymer, Weigao Group, the General Hospital of the People's Liberation Army, Soochow University, and other partners were successfully selected for the first batch of projects, which will lead to revolutionary changes in the field of biomaterials for medical use.
The project, titled "Research, Development, Production, and Application of PMP Hollow Fiber Membrane for Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation," aims to lead the development of new biomaterials for medical use in China. As a life-saving technology for patients with severe respiratory or cardiac failure, ECMO requires a significant amount of special materials, especially the membrane materials used for oxygenation. Leading this pioneering project will drive innovation in the domestic ECMO technology field. This significant breakthrough signifies a new stage for Eco Polymer and its partners, who will strive to break the import monopoly of core ECMO consumables and fill the domestic production gap.
Moving forward, Eco Polymer, in collaboration with all participating units and as a leader in the development of new biomaterials for medical use, will continue to challenge the import monopoly of ECMO core consumables. By overcoming technical difficulties and introducing cutting-edge innovations, they aim to reduce dependency on imports, establish a domestic supply chain, and ensure the localization of this critical medical technology.
This major breakthrough aligns with China's vision to become a global leader in innovation and sets a new benchmark for the domestic medical industry. It reflects Eco Polymer's firm commitment to innovation, ensuring that this technology can provide a lifeline for patients in need.
In this exciting journey, the company invites industry experts, researchers, and stakeholders to join the collaboration, promoting synergy and collective effort to create a revolutionary future for new biomaterials for medical use. This not only represents progress but also demonstrates Eco's dedication to advancing healthcare.
The smooth progress of Eco Polymer in the National Development Plan for New Biomaterials for Medical Use heralds the arrival of a new era for "Made in China" high-end medical solutions. Eco Polymer will continue to push forward, focusing on the development of biomaterials for pharmaceutical microfiltration, virus removal membranes, and hollow fiber ultrafiltration membranes, making the leap from "Made in China" to "Created in China." With a firm commitment to excellence, Eco Polymer and its partners will lead the future of biomedical innovation.
