Teknor Apex has expanded its medical-grade thermoplastic elastomer (TPE) portfolio with new grades specifically designed for biopharmaceutical tubing applications. 

The company will display the new portfolio as well as other advanced materials at CompaMed 2024 in Hall 8B, Booth F20-4. 

Teknor Apex’s materials are designed for a wide range of biopharmaceutical applications, including single-use systems, bioreactors, filtration systems, and fluid transfer lines

The new Medalist TPE grades offer strong performance benefits, including:

• 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.
• Enhanced Clarity: Improved transparency for visual inspection of fluid flow and potential particle contamination.
