UFP Technologies Acquires UNIPEC and TPI to Expand Film and Thermoplastic Molding Capabilities
NEWBURYPORT, Mass., July 17, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- UFP Technologies, Inc. (Nasdaq: UFPT), a designer and custom manufacturer of comprehensive solutions for medical devices, sterile packaging, and other highly engineered custom products, today announced the acquisitions of Universal Plastics & Engineering Company, Inc. (“UNIPEC”) and Techno Plastics Industries, Inc. (“TPI”). These transactions further expand UFP’s capabilities in tight tolerance film components and thermoplastic molding for the medical device market.
UNIPEC, headquartered in Rockville, Maryland, develops and manufactures precision thermoformed and heat-sealed polymer components used primarily for shielding batteries in Class III implantable medical devices. The company is an excellent strategic fit with UFP’s Welch Fluorocarbon operation, enhancing its thin film platform and increasing production scale for demanding implantable applications.
“We are excited to welcome UNIPEC to our growing portfolio of high-performance film solutions,” said R. Jeffrey Bailly, Chairman and CEO of UFP Technologies. “Their expertise in tight tolerance molding of specialty EMI shielding materials adds further strength to our implantable device offerings and complements Welch Fluorocarbon’s core capabilities.”

“TPI is a strong strategic fit that bolsters our thermoplastic molding capabilities. They are strategically located near our DAS business in the Dominican Republic that utilizes a number of injection molded components in our robotic assisted surgery drape solutions,” said Bailly.
“These acquisitions further our strategy of expanding capabilities in high-growth, high-barrier sectors of the medical device market,” added Bailly. “Each company brings unique technologies, strong leadership, and deep application knowledge that will strengthen our partnerships with leading medical device OEMs.”
