Contract manufacturer for cardiac, neuro, and vascular medical devices
Integer is a large-scale contract development and manufacturing partner for implantable medical devices, operating across three core markets (cardiac rhythm management, neuromodulation, cardio/vascular) with manufacturing footprints spanning the US, Ireland, Uruguay, Dominican Republic, Mexico, and Malaysia.
