TekniPlex to showcase paratubing range at MD&M West

TekniPlex Healthcare is showcasing its recently expanded range of paratubing solutions at MD&M West.

Among other differentiating benefits, TekniPlex Healthcare’s paratubing solutions can be produced in up to eight tube configurations, including custom coloured, textured or striped tube formations to distinguish between flow paths.

TekniPlex Healthcare’s validated manufacturing processes yield paratubes with uniform, repeatable and consistent bonding strength between 0.22 and 1.5 pounds, protecting dimensional stability and ensuring each individual tubing line’s integrity. Maintaining consistent bonding strength prevents individual tubes from separating prematurely and being rejected by healthcare providers and eliminates the need for excessive force to peel the tubes apart, which can damage or distort them to the detriment of patients.

Also, at MD&M West, TekniPlex Healthcare will showcase its new lower weight reinforced coated papers for medical device protection. The company’s coating formulations and application technology result in rolls that can meet demanding performance and sterilisation requirements, even when slimmed down.

The new reinforced coated papers are suitable for packaging a variety of common healthcare items including syringes; tubing such as IVs, catheters, and airway filters; gauzes, sponges, and bandages; and devices sterilised by EtO and radiation. TekniPlex Healthcare also will display samples of its TekniMD PX, a high-performance thermoformable co-polyester film serving as an alternative to PETG for medical device packaging applications.

MD&M West takes place on 7-9 February at Anaheim Convention Center. TekniPlex Healthcare will be at Booth 3227.
