Lubrizol to Showcase Expanded
Global Medical Device Capabilities at Compamed 2014
CLEVELAND, November 12, 2014 - The Lubrizol Corporation announces that its
LifeSciences business will be showcasing their expanding capabilities, including
those from its recent acquisition of Vesta, at the Compamed 2014 exhibition
(Hall 08a / R23) November 12-14 at the Düsseldorf fairgrounds in Düsseldorf,
Germany. The recent acquisition of Vesta, a leading contract manufacturer for

also supplies precision thermoplastic extruded tubing, assemblies and secondary
operations to its medical device customers. The medical device manufacturer has
a long history of medical design engineering experience with clinical device
applications in cardiology, urology, wound care and bariatrics.
"The addition of Vesta significantly enhances our life science offerings through
the combination of strong polymer technology, applications know-how, and world-
class component manufacturing," says Deb Langer, vice president and general
manager, Lubrizol LifeSciences. "As medical device companies look for total
solution providers, the expertise and capabilities of Vesta give us the ability
to provide a more valuable offering to these customers on a global basis."
