As the US population ages, the need for medical devices, supplies and
packaging will increase to a value of $6.55 billion by 2012. As a
result, the demand for commodity plastics, including resins such as

annually for the next several years. Engineered plastics will be in
greatest demand because these higher-performing materials will be
needed for surgical instruments, diagnostic testing, drug delivery,
geriatric care.
