Thermoplastic Elastomer (TPE)

From the gym to the doctor's office, thermoplastic elastomers (TPE) can be found in many everyday items and specialty products. Because TPE is easy to sterilize and offers excellent cleanliness properties, TPE tubing is a superior choice for the medical, food, and beverage industries.

Additionally, TPE products are naturally latex-free and thus completely safe for individuals with latex allergies or sensitivities.

TPE mimics many of rubber's most desirable properties, such as flexibility and a soft feel. But TPE is far more resistant to heat and chemical exposure than rubber, making it a more stable, durable material choice in certain applications.

TPE material demonstrates excellent elasticity, flexibility, and elongation properties. TPE products can also offer good tensile strength and tear resistance.
