The spotlight will be on two TPU innovations: the Low-Migration Series and the Low-Friction Series.
The Low-Migration Arothane™ ARP-B20 TPU complies with ISO 10993 and is suitable for implantation up to 90 days. Its formulation minimizes additive migration to the surface of medical devices, helping maintain long-term stability.
The Low-Friction Series features an inherently smooth surface that eliminates the need for coatings or post-processing. Made entirely of TPU and free from PFAS and plasticizers, it supports improved comfort and control when handling invasive catheters with guidewires.
ICP DAS-BMP will also present the ARP, ALP, and ALC series support devices with Limited, Prolonged, and Long-term contact durations under ISO 10993-1. For radiopaque applications, the ARP/ALP/ALC-B20/B40 series contains 20–40% barium sulfate, while the ARP-W/WG series contains 40–60% tungsten to enhance visibility in invasive or implantable devices. The Engineering Arothane™ EARP series offers clarity and mechanical strength for orthodontic and precision components.
At COMPAMED 2026, ICP DAS-BMP will join the Taiwan TPU Alliance, initiated by Towards Buddha Co., Ltd., a manufacturer of TPU tubing. The Alliance brings together industry partners, including INTYPE ENTERPRISE CO., LTD., a manufacturer of extrusion machinery; Chi Feng Co., Ltd., a manufacturer of injection molding components; A-MAX TECHNOLOGY CO., LTD., a supplier of auxiliary equipment for the rubber and plastics industry; and ANEST IWATA SPARMAX Co., Ltd., a manufacturer of air compressors and vacuum pumps. The Alliance connects expertise across the TPU and medical device manufacturing value chain, from medical-grade TPU materials and tubing to injection molding, extrusion machinery, auxiliary equipment, and air and vacuum systems.
