ICP DAS-BMP Introduces Advanced TPU Portfolio at Medtec China 2025

A Leap in Healthcare Innovations

ICP DAS-BMP, a leading Taiwanese manufacturer specializing in medical-grade thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU), is set to showcase its innovative TPU portfolio at the upcoming Medtec China 2025. Scheduled for September 24-26 at the Shanghai World Expo Exhibition and Convention Center, this event promises to be a platform for unveiling groundbreaking advancements in healthcare materials.

Highlighting Cutting-Edge TPU

One of the key features at this year’s exhibition is the low-migration ARP-B20-TPU, designed in accordance with the ISO 10993 biocompatibility standards for applications involving up to 90-day implants. This type of TPU minimizes the migration of additives during the thermofixing process, ensuring that catheters maintain a clean, smooth surface throughout their operational lifespan. Additionally, with 15 vibrant color options available, manufacturers can achieve significant design flexibility tailored to clinical requirements.

ICP DAS-BMP will also present a broad selection of TPU materials that cater to various medical applications. The core TPU products include Arothane™, Alithane™, and Durathane™ (Series ARP/ALP/ALC), all meeting the standards necessary for most body-contact medical devices, particularly barium sulfate-containing variants like B20 or B40. Arothane™ ARP-B20 and Durathane™ ALC-B40 have successfully passed the 13-week implantation test as per ISO 10993-6, confirming their suitability for implantation lasting up to 90 days. Their excellent dispersibility and biological safety make these products the preferred option for invasive catheters.

For thin-walled medical devices or guidewire coatings, the Arothane™ Series ARP-W and ARP-WG feature a tungsten content of 40% to 60%, providing outstanding X-ray visibility. The soft ARP series, with a hardness rating below 70A, ensures flexibility and mechanical strength, catering to equipment that requires durability alongside patient comfort. Moreover, the Engineering Arothane™ TPU (EARP-series) stands out with its high glass transition temperature and exceptional light transmittance, making it ideal for orthodontic components, luer-lock connections, and other precision instruments.

Comprehensive TPU Portfolio

Together, these offerings create a robust TPU portfolio that meets the evolving demands of modern health technologies. Attendees are encouraged to visit the ICP DAS-BMP team at Hall 2, Booth No. 2D402 to explore innovations and TPU solutions designed to enhance the performance, safety, and versatility of medical devices.
