Medical-grade TPEs for biopharmaceutical tubing applications
Iranpolymer/Baspar Teknor Apex announces the expansion of its medical-grade thermoplastic elastomer (TPE) portfolio with new grades specifically designed for biopharmaceutical tubing applications. Medical device manufacturers choose thermoplastic elastomers (TPEs) for applications that require flexibility or rubber-like elasticity, and they turn to Teknor Apex to deliver high quality, regulatory-compliant Medalist® TPEs with a proven track record.
As a family-owned company celebrating its 100th year in 2024, Teknor Apex continues to innovate and deliver solutions to meet the evolving needs of the healthcare market. These innovative Medalist® Series are tailored to address the unique challenges associated with the continuous processing of biopharmaceuticals through roller pumps.
Teknor Apex’s new Medalist® TPE grades offer a compelling combination of performance benefits, including:
– Enhanced Clarity: Improved transparency for visual inspection of fluid flow and potential particle contamination.
– Reduced Spallation: Minimized material loss and contamination risks during extended pump operation.
– Extended Pump Life: Increased durability and longevity of tubing, reducing maintenance requirements and downtime.
These advanced materials are ideal for a wide range of biopharmaceutical applications including single-use systems, bioreactors, filtration systems and fluid transfer lines.
Teknor Apex will be showcasing these new TPEs at Compamed (November 11-14), the leading international trade fair for medical technology. Visit them in Hall 8B, Booth F20-4 to learn more about how their materials can help you achieve optimal performance and reliability in your biopharmaceutical processes.
