Expanded Supersoft TPE Portfolio for Medical Applications
The expanded range of supersoft TPEs, part of the THERMOLAST® M series, now includes additional hardness levels, providing even greater flexibility for medical device manufacturers. Designed for applications such as prosthetics, orthotic devices, and damping elements, these compounds feature:

Hardness values ranging from 30 to 50 Shore 00 and/or 45 to 70 VLRH.
A pleasantly dry and velvety feel, unlike other soft TPEs that often produce sticky surfaces.
Elastic properties ideal for applications with one-sided compressive loads, such as orthopedic components.
Proven biocompatibility, passing ISO 10993-5 (cytotoxicity) and ISO 10993-10 (skin sensitization) standards, ensuring safe, skin-friendly use.

Innovative Processing Capabilities
Supersoft compounds specifically optimized for standard injection molding, ensuring precise dosing, excellent flowability, and smooth ejection during production. Additionally, their compatibility with 3D printing technologies opens the door to customized therapeutic solutions for patients.

Dedicated Medical-Grade Production
To ensure the highest quality standards, KRAIBURG TPE manufactures its medical grade compounds on dedicated production lines, adhering to the VDI 2017 standard and its proprietary Medical Service Package.
