What Natech Plastics does

Natech Plastics is a precision injection molding and contract manufacturing company serving the medical device, in-vitro diagnostics, pharmaceutical, and life sciences industries. Founded by master moldmaker Gerd Nagler and headquartered in Ronkonkoma, NY, the company operates 19 injection molding machines (60–400 ton range) across ISO Class 8 cleanroom environments, with 45,000 sq ft of production space and 200M+ parts shipped cumulatively. Its core capabilities include precision microstructure molding down to 25nm features, in-house moldmaking and repair, scientific molding with MoldFlow simulation, custom automation (servo-driven robotics, cobot cells), and contract packaging including sterile barrier packaging and kitting. The firm is ISO 13485, ISO 9001, ISO 15378, and FDA 21 CFR 820 certified, with 18 patents held through its Director of Engineering.

The company offers three service lines — Contract Development (DFM, moldmaking, process validation, automation), Contract Manufacturing (injection molding, assembly, finishing), and Contract Packaging (filling, sealing, sterile barrier, kitting, labeling) — under a quote-based enterprise sales model. Target customers include IVD companies building diagnostic consumables and microfluidic cartridges, medical device OEMs, pharmaceutical primary packaging buyers, and startups transitioning from prototype to commercial production. Sales occur through direct enterprise engagement, plant tours, and engineering consultations.

Natech operates as a wholly-owned subsidiary of STRATEC SE (publicly traded in Germany), accessing a 7-facility global network spanning the US, Germany, Austria, Hungary, Switzerland, and Romania. The STRATEC relationship extends Natech's reach into custom instrumentation and complex microfluidics through partnership products, while Natech retains operational independence under Managing Director of Operations David Kachoui. The firm has won three consecutive MAPP Innovation Awards (2022–2024) for automation and assembly work and maintains a 23-project-per-year throughput of new product introductions.
