By earning ISO 13485 Certification, one of the medical industry's most stringent standards, firms are recognized for having developed the highest quality procedures and documentation. These include certification of systems to monitor and maintain the effectiveness of all processes, the adherence to strict documentation according to special management system manuals, the highest level of quality control and full documentation records to prove that requirements have been met, among other criteria.

Polyzen, Inc. is now in its 15th year as one of the medical products industry's pre-eminent manufacturers of critical and specialty disposable components and devices, as well as a leading contract manufacturer for medical product OEMs. It was founded by President Tilak M.
