KRAIBURG TPE, a global manufacturer of thermoplastic elastomers (TPEs), offers high-quality, custom-engineered materials for innovative medical devices, including mouthguards, nasal dilators, and other oral appliances can help reduce disruptive snoring.

Durability, comfort and aesthetics

 

KRAIBURG’s TPE compounds offer a soft surface, flexibility, high elasticity, and low friction, ensuring excellent comfort and durability even with extended use of anti-snore devices.

 

Available in translucent and transparent options, these materials can be colored to enhance aesthetics and allow customization to fit specific product requirements.

 

Sterilizable for hygienic use

 

The medical material solutions are sterilizable by autoclave at 121°C and ethylene oxide (EtO), which maintain the hygiene and safety of anti-snore devices during regular use. These sterilization methods also maintain material integrity while adhering to high medical standards.

 

Align to global safety standards

 

The materials meet strict global safety standards for medical technology, including US FDA CFR 21 raw material compliance, EU food-contact regulation No. 10/2011, in vitro cytotoxicity requirements for medical devices as specified in DIN ISO 10993-5 and GB/T 16886.5 (China), as well as RoHS and REACH regulations.

 

These TPEs are free from animal ingredients, PVC, silicone, and latex, making them suitable for a wide range of medical devices.

 

Versatile for various health applications

 

The TPE compounds provide excellent adhesion to polyolefins such as PP and PE and can be processed via injection molding or extrusion.

 

Aside from anti-snoring devices, these medical-grade TPEs are also well-suited for a broad range of health and hygiene applications. Typical uses include functional and design components, seals, flexible connectors, mouthpieces, and closures, where comfort, safety, and reliable performance matter most.

 

Sustainable alternatives

 

KRAIBURG offers sustainable alternatives including bio-based TPEs and compounds with post-consumer (PCR) and post-industrial (PIR) recycled content. Selected TPEs are certified under GRS and ISCC PLUS.

 

Product Carbon Footprint (PCF) data is available upon request.
