Paragon Medical designs and manufactures a full line of custom and standard cases and trays. Years of experience in polymer, metal and hybrid combined with certified design engineers, vertical integration and a one-of-a-kind engineered polymer extrusion line allow Paragon to turn your project around quickly, accurately, and specific to your needs. Major process capabilities include: thermoforming, injection molding, metal fabrication, polymer sheet extrusion, CNC machining, laser etching, and silk-screening.

The GDC enables extensive collaboration between Paragon engineers and the OEM's development teams. We deliver solutions through sound research, development and validation protocol. The building blocks of the GDC include project management, design, research, analytical testing, prototyping and a scientific advisory council.
