ICP DAS-BMP Showcases Medical TPU Innovations at COMPAMED 2026
Düsseldorf, Germany (November 3, 2026) – ICP DAS-BMP, a leading Taiwanese manufacturer and supplier of medical-grade thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU), is set to exhibit at the COMPAMED 2026 trade show from November 16 to 19 at Messe Düsseldorf, specifically in Hall 8b, Stand C09. This event represents a significant opportunity for the company to display its cutting-edge TPU offerings and to promote the newly established Taiwan TPU Alliance.
Among the key innovations on display will be their Low-Migration and Low-Friction series of TPUs. The
Arothane™ ARP-B20, part of the Low-Migration line, meets ISO 10993 standards, indicating its suitability for use in implants lasting up to 90 days. The formulation is specifically designed to minimize the migration of additives to the surfaces of medical devices, thus ensuring greater long-term stability.
The
Low-Friction series, meanwhile, boasts a naturally smooth surface that eliminates the need for coatings or post-processing. This TPU is entirely free from PFAS and plasticizers, providing enhanced handling comfort and control for invasive catheter use.
In addition to these innovative products, ICP DAS-BMP will showcase the ARP, ALP, and ALC series, tailored for medical products with limited, extended, and long-term exposure durations as per ISO 10993-1 guidelines. For applications requiring X-ray imaging, the ARP/ALP/ALC-B20/B40 series contains 20-40% barium sulfate, while the ARP-W/WG series offers enhanced visibility with 40-60% tungsten content for better X-ray visibility of invasive or implantable medical devices.
The engineering-focused
Arothane™ EARP series provides transparency along with mechanical strength, ideal for orthodontic components and precision parts.
