The versatility of TPE
Dear Customer,
For more than 30 years, TPE materials have been successful between the material classes of thermoplastics and elastomers. They have established themselves as a separate group and are suitable for a wide variety of applications as they eminently combine the mechanical properties of vulcanized elastomers with the processing characteristics of thermoplastics.

Reclosing intravenous bag closure made from TPE
At ACTEGA DS, we exploit this variety displayed by thermoplastic elastomers for our PROVAMED® portfolio whose material properties can be flexibly classified within a wide framework. This means not only can it be tailored to your specific needs but also complies with the various requirements stipulated by stringent international rules governing technical medical products and therefore the actual raw materials themselves. Let’s take as an example material for packaging with direct contact to medical media – high-quality intravenous bag closures or so-called resealing membranes for intravenous bags or bottles.

Consequently, pressure infusion is achieved swiftly. Unlike once-off injections, infusion therapy refers to continuous, usually parenteral administration of medical fluids, primarily administered intravenously.
