Our customer Toppi Oy was looking for new material for its medical hoses. As we are talking about the health and wellbeing of people, you can guess that the list of requirements was long and demanding.

For the medical hose, it is all about purity. The antistatic material must be homogeneous and of extremely high quality. Not many antistatic materials meet the requirements, but Premix’s PRE-ELEC® material was up for the challenge!

In this co-operation, the inner layer of the medical hose was made with PRE-ELEC® TPU, instead of the previously used PVC. In addition to the health-related properties, replacing PVC with TPU brings other, substantial advantages. The hose is antistatic, more flexible (even when pressured), its bending angle is better and the material is softer, giving the hose a very pleasant feel. Furthermore, the hose remains soft and flexible even in colder temperatures, adding ease of use.

The hose is EN ISO 5359 compliant and recyclable. Its wear resistance is good, too.

"We’ve received very good feedback from the market and are happy to market this pioneering product further. Premix’s top quality, reliable PRE-ELEC® material gives both us and the end-user full confidence in the product,” says Toppi’s Purchasing Manager Mr. Tomi Toppi.

It’s a delight to work with our customer Toppi Oy who has the will and capability to design products that really make a difference.
