KRAIBURG TPE Healthcare TPE Advancing Innovation in Loop Recorder Monitoring Technology

Detecting heart rhythm irregularities early can be life-saving. Loop recorder monitoring devices improve long-term cardiac care by continuously tracking irregular heart rhythms and storing data for diagnosis. These devices must meet strict safety, biocompatibility, and durability standards.

THERMOLAST® H, engineered for superior medical devices 
KRAIBURG TPE, a global manufacturer of thermoplastic elastomers that provides high-quality, custom-engineered compounds for the healthcare and medical device market in the Asia Pacific, introduces THERMOLAST® H an advanced TPE series for medical devices like loop recorders, meeting global standards for durability, biocompatibility, and hygiene.

Enhanced material performance for loop recorder applications
KRAIBURG TPE’s THERMOLAST® H optimizes manufacturing and elevates patient care in the Asia Pacific and globally through its material advantages.
 

  • Good haptic & soft touch feeling:  Since loop recorders are worn on the skin, comfort is key to preventing irritation. THERMOLAST® H provides a soft, skin-friendly texture, making it easier for patients to wear the device for long periods without discomfort while staying on track with their treatment.
     
  • Optimizable processability: Loop recorder manufacturing requires materials that are easy to mold and shape for efficient production. With its adaptable processability, THERMOLAST® H allows for complex designs that maintain the device’s functionality and integrity.
     
  • Compliance with Regulatory Standards: THERMOLAST® H meets ISO 10993-5 (cytotoxicity), GB/T 16886.5, and other global food contact and applicable medical standards. The material is free from silicone, latex, PVC, and phthalates. Its adherence to international standards enables loop recorders made with THERMOLAST® H to reach global markets, assuring healthcare providers and patients of their reliability and safety.
