With more than 35 million implants worldwide, our medical products offer new solutions to medical challenges, working with the body’s own tissues and organs to allow less invasive procedures and restore normal functioning.

Device manufacturers depend on Gore’s medical industry experience and fluoropolymer innovations to develop products that improve clinical outcomes. Gore’s portfolio encompasses implant biomaterials, unique tubing products, and membranes for venting and filtration in critical applications.

Innovative material science is at the core of every product engineered at Gore.

We believe “Material Matters” when choosing a medical device, and in producing improvements for patient care.
