§ 01 / 04 — OUR STORY
From operator to founder.
Polymer Flow Solutions was founded by Jonathan Jurgaitis after thirty-plus years at the front of medical and industrial extrusion. Every role pointed at the same conclusion: the hardest problems get solved when experience moves freely between people.
1990s
Polytec Plastics
Operator → Shift Supervisor → Production Manager · St. Charles, IL
Foundation in polymer extrusion processes, properties, and specifications. Custom extruded profiles and pipe. Plant management and sales rounded out the operator-side training.
01
2000s
International Polymer Engineering
Entry into medical extrusion · Materials research
A new polymer vocabulary. Correlating unfamiliar materials with familiar processes. High-temperature extrusion mastered across medical, aerospace, and additive manufacturing — earning industry recognition.
02
2010s
Spectrum Plastics Group / formerly Apollo Medical Extrusion
Introduced high-temp capability · French-scale catheter line · AM filament
Launched standardized French-scale catheter tubing; AM FFF filaments for medical prototyping; developed the process to fully crystallize PEEK tubing during extrusion. Published as white papers and conference talks.
03
2020s
Biomerics
Director of Extrusion · Salt Lake City, UT
Oversaw the implementation of new extrusion processes at multiple locations. Cross-site facilities planning, machinery installation, and process initiation.
04
2025
Polymer Flow Solutions
Founder · Independent practice
An independent practice built on a single idea: that the medical extrusion industry advances faster when expertise is shared. Working alongside processors and visionaries to improve, innovate, teach, and progress the extrusion process.
