HSINCHU, Jan. 27, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — ICP DAS-BMP (Biomedical Polymers), a Taiwan-based manufacturer and supplier of medical-grade TPU (thermoplastic polyurethane), is pleased to announce its participation in WHX Dubai 2026 (formerly Arab Health), taking place from 9 to 12 February at the Dubai Exhibition Centre. Visitors can find the ICP DAS-BMP team at Booth S7C117.
The highlight of this year’s exhibit will be two TPU innovations addressing critical needs in medical device manufacturing: the Low-Migration Series and the Low-Friction Series.
The Low-Migration Arothane™ ARP-B20 TPU is ISO 10993 compliant and suitable for implantation up to 90 days. It minimizes additive migration during processing, helping catheters retain smooth surfaces throughout their shelf life, while offering multiple color options for flexible, customized designs.
The Low-Friction Series, engineered with an inherently smooth surface, eliminates the need for additional coatings or post-processing. Made entirely of TPU and free from PFAS or plasticizers, it delivers long-term stability without surface exudation or additive migration. Its low-friction properties suit applications requiring smooth insertion, such as nasogastric tubes with guidewires, while maintaining safety and performance during storage and use.
ICP DAS-BMP will also showcase a broad TPU portfolio for diverse medical applications. The ARP, ALP, and ALC series are suitable for devices classified as Limited (less than 24 hours), Prolonged (24 hours–30 days), and Long-term (more than 30 days) contact durations under ISO 10993-1. For radiopaque applications, ARP-B20 and ALC-B40 (qualified for 90-day implantation) and the ARP-W/WG series (40–60% tungsten) provide enhanced visibility for invasive or implantable devices. The Engineering Arothane™ EARP series, known for clarity and mechanical strength, is ideal for orthodontic components, Luer-Lock connectors, and other precision medical devices.
Together, these materials reflect ICP DAS-BMP’s commitment to advancing safer, reliable, and versatile TPU solutions, helping medical device manufacturers meet evolving healthcare needs.
