X-Tech Medical

What X-Tech Medical does

X-Tech Medical Limited is a UK-based medical device contract manufacturer and product developer specialising in single-use polymer medical devices. Founded in 2011 and headquartered in Stonehouse, Gloucestershire, the company operates as a subsidiary of the Xograph Group from a 2.8-acre site comprising administration, R&D, manufacturing, and warehouse facilities. It serves both global medical device OEMs and small-to-medium companies, taking products from concept through prototyping, tooling, full-scale manufacture, assembly, packaging, and sterilisation management. The company is ISO 13485:2016 accredited and holds Directive 93/42/EEC certification, enabling it to CE mark products as legal manufacturer.

The company's core technical capabilities centre on micro-extrusion (tubes from 0.8mm to 17mm outside diameter, including single and multilumen configurations) and micro injection moulding with tight-tolerance inspection, performed in Class 7 ISO 10,000 cleanrooms. It also offers insert/over-moulding, purpose-built automated tip forming and eyelet punching, in-cleanroom pad printing, and full regulatory traceability. Key products include the Bougie (tracheal tube introducer with proprietary soft, fluorescent, deflectable tip design), single-use anaesthetic harness assemblies manufactured for a global OEM, and the EDEN2020 biocompatible neurosurgery catheter developed under a €8.3m Horizon 2020 consortium grant. Sterilisation is handled via certified partners (ISO 11137 Gamma, ISO 11135 EO).

X-Tech Medical operates a B2B, project-based, quote-driven sales model with revenue derived from one-time manufacturing contracts and custom development engagements. Distribution is mixed: direct supply to global OEM customers and a distributor network for branded devices such as bougies. Marketing relies on a content-led website (capability showcases, case studies, news updates) and direct sales engagement, with no public pricing. Headcount is 11–50 employees and the company has been investing in facility expansion and SAP ERP modernisation, supported by the Xograph Group parent structure under Group CEO Peter Staff and General Manager Mike Biro.
