Retractable Technologies: A Pioneer in Safety

Retractable Technologies, Inc. was founded in 1989 by Thomas J. Shaw after a deeply personal and tragic event—his friend, a physician, contracted HIV from a needlestick injury. Motivated by this loss and armed with a background in mechanical and structural engineering, Shaw invented the patented VanishPoint syringe. This self-retracting syringe technology has since transformed safety protocols across healthcare environments. Backed by funding from the National Institutes of Health and the National Institute on Drug Abuse, Retractable Technologies has set new benchmarks for integrity, innovation, and impact in medical device manufacturing. Their commitment to preventing needlestick injuries has saved countless lives and continues to protect healthcare professionals worldwide.
