LiquiGlide Announces New Partnerships and Latest Funding Round as Frictionless Future Becomes a Reality
Summary
By eliminating friction, LiquiGlide has made previously impossible advancements in packaging, manufacturing, and medical devices a reality via safe and sustainable solutions that meet rigorous safety and regulatory standards. The company is also focused on critically important applications of its technology in the biomedical domain, including the prevention of clogging, reduction of device-related infection, and the enhanced production and delivery of viscous drugs and biologics. Until now, weve accepted significant waste, whether in manufacturing or in packaging, as part of the price for these products because they stick to containers or devices they touch," said Professor Kripa Varanasi, co-founder and Chairman of LiquiGlide. Invented at MIT by Dave Smith and Professor Kripa Varanasi, its technology eliminates a fundamental design constraint and enables real, powerful breakthroughs across industries, and transforms the way we manufacture, package and consume viscous products. LiquiGlide also improves quality of life and patient care by enabling medical devices that wont clog or cause infections and new drugs and biologics that were previously too viscous to be made or administered.
