By embedding these capabilities into Philips’ monitoring ecosystem, the collaboration aims to reduce complexity, enhance interoperability, and deliver streamlined tools that support timely decision-making and continuity of care. 
 
Building on this foundation, Philips and Masimo also plan to collaborate on the development and co-promotion of next-generation monitoring solutions that reflect emerging clinical needs and evolving market demands such as the need for greater patient mobility. These efforts are focused on advancing smart, connected care and expanding access to innovative technologies, including AI algorithms, that have the potential to improve patient care over time. 
 
“Our priority is helping clinicians deliver the best possible care to their patients, and that means staying ahead of the curve,” said Julia Strandberg, Executive Vice President and Business Leader Connected Care at Royal Philips. “This partnership allows us to respond quickly to evolving clinical needs and market trends, integrating proven technologies into solutions that are easy to use, reliable, and scalable.”

“We are excited to continue to partner with Philips to bring Masimo’s newest innovations in wearables and artificial intelligence to Philips’ platforms,” said Katie Szyman, CEO of Masimo. “Expanding our strong, long-standing partnership with Philips allows us to build on our shared legacies of innovation and helps ensure that Masimo’s best-in-class technologies reach even more patients. Together, Masimo and Philips will continue to empower clinicians to transform patient care.”

A shared commitment to innovation and impact 
The renewed partnership underscores both companies’ dedication to transforming patient care through meaningful innovation. By bringing together Philips’ deep expertise in patient monitoring and Masimo’s advanced noninvasive technologies, the collaboration is focused on delivering integrated, clinically validated solutions that scale to meet the needs of healthcare providers. It also aligns with Philips’ broader strategy to work with industry-leading partners to enhance care delivery, improve operational efficiency, and support vendor-neutral interoperability across healthcare systems.

Ecovia-Bio Commissions the First Polyglutamic Acid Production Facility in the U.S.

Ecovia-Bio is proud to announce the commissioning of its new commercial production facility in Livonia, Michigan, marking a historic milestone as the first, and only, manufacturer of polyglutamic acid (PGA) and its derivatives in the United States.

PGA is often described as ‘nature’s thickener.’ This bio-based and biodegradable polymer has wide applications in cosmetics, agriculture, and even diapers, as a replacement for the synthetic polyacrylates that turn into long-lasting microplastics. Many regions of the world are banning the use of synthetic polyacrylates in some applications to reduce human and environmental exposure to microplastics.

Ecovia’s new state-of-the-art 20,000 square-foot facility will supply early customers with domestically produced high-quality PGA solutions to meet the growing market demand. By establishing U.S.-based manufacturing, Ecovia-Bio is strengthening supply chain resilience and supporting innovation for its partners nationwide.

“Commissioning our Livonia facility is an exciting step forward for Ecovia-Bio and for sustainable manufacturing in the U.S.,” said Dr. Jeremy Minty, CTO and Co-Founder of Ecovia-Bio. “Our mission is to deliver high-performing, bio-based solutions that enable our partners to innovate and grow responsibly. With this new plant, we are bringing sustainable, domestically made PGA products to industries that need smarter alternatives to traditional synthetic materials.”

For sales and partnership inquiries or more information, please contact Ecovia-Bio’s business development team at bd@ecovia-bio.com.

About Ecovia-Bio

Ecovia-Bio is a Michigan-based leader in sustainable specialty biopolymers, committed to advancing bio-based solutions for customers in the agriculture, cosmetic, personal care and hygiene industries.
