Exclusively engineered for hospital ICUs, clinical gastroenterology departments, and home-care distributors across the Sultanate of Oman. All models meet stringent international biocompatibility standards.
Under the strategic directives of Oman Vision 2040, the Ministry of Health (MOH) of Oman is undertaking an unprecedented expansion of tertiary healthcare centers, specialized gastroenterology clinics, and intensive care units (ICUs). Landmark clinical facilities such as the Sultan Qaboos University Hospital (Muscat), Royal Hospital, Sohar Regional Hospital, and Salalah Sultan Qaboos Hospital have elevated standards for disposable medical consumables. Procurement protocols now strictly demand high-tier medical polymers, certified biocompatibility, and foolproof anti-misconnection geometries for enteral feeding devices.
To mitigate healthcare-associated infections (HAIs) and mucosal trauma during prolonged enteral tube placement, medical purchasers in the GCC region are shifting away from traditional low-cost industrial-grade PVC tubes toward advanced ultra-smooth silicone stomach tubes and echogenic nasogastric catheters. Furthermore, the mandatory introduction of international safety connector standards (such as ISO 80369-3 / ENFit compliance) across Oman's private healthcare sector—including hospital chains like Aster Al Raffah, NMC Healthcare Oman, and Badr Al Samaa—has elevated the requirement for specialized OEM manufacturing capabilities.
Established in 1994, Angiplast Private Limited has established itself as an international powerhouse in single-use medical device production. Operating from a vertically integrated manufacturing campus in Ahmedabad, India, our infrastructure covers over 300+ device SKUs across 9 critical therapy fields, supplying healthcare systems across more than 52 countries, including extensive distribution channels throughout the Middle East and GCC nations.
Our stomach tubes, infant feeding lines, and PEG catheters are assembled in state-of-the-art Class 10,000 (ISO Class 7/8) controlled cleanrooms. Environmental micro-particle controls guarantee zero airborne contamination during thermal tip forming and solvent bonding.
Integrated Ethylene Oxide (ETO) sterilizers deliver fully validated cycles compliant with ISO 11135. Every production batch undergoes rigorous biological indicator incubation, gas residual analysis (EO/ECH limits), and micro-dosing validation before container sealing.
Backed by ISO 13485 Quality Management Systems and CE marking under European Medical Device Directives/MDR, Angiplast delivers complete regulatory dossiers (Device Master Files, FSC, CoAs) tailored for rapid registration with the Oman Ministry of Health.
Selecting the appropriate stomach catheter for clinical application involves evaluating material durometer, tissue friction, tensile strength, and retention integrity. Angiplast engineers utilize two primary medical polymer categories tailored for distinct clinical duration requirements:
Intended for short-term gastrointestinal drainage, lavage, and enteral administration (up to 14 days). Standard commercial PVC often utilizes Di(2-ethylhexyl)phthalate (DEHP) as a plasticizer, which risks leaching into lipid-rich nutrition solutions. Angiplast utilizes TOTM (Trioctyl Trimellitate) or ATBC plasticized PVC, providing exceptional flexibility without endocrine-disrupting leaching.
Engineered for long-term enteral nutrition therapy (PEG, Gastrostomy, and extended Nasogastric care exceeding 30 days). Platinum-cured silicone offers ultimate biological inertness, resisting gastric acid degradation and fungal colonization superior to peroxide-cured alternatives.
