NewAge Industries AdvantaFlex TPE Tubing

NewAge Industries AdvantaFlex TPE tubing addresses the need for a flexible, translucent, sterilizable, moldable, heat sealable, and weldable biopharmaceutical tubing for fluid processing. AdvantaFlex TPE tubing maintains its physical properties following sterilization processes, resists kinking, remains translucent for visible product flow, and does not become gummy. Sterilizable by autoclave or gamma radiation, TPE has low permeability, absorption, and adsorption characteristics as compared to silicone. AdvantaFlex is designed for single resin validation which eliminates the need to graft to other tubing materials like silicone for media filling and sampling applications that involve peristaltic pumps. AdvantaFlex is available as leak-proof molded connections and tubing, sealed tubing ends, or with molded mini Tri-Clamp ends.

AdvantaFlex tubing is made from FDA-approved ingredients and is certified free of silicone oils and animal-derived ingredients. The tubing is sealed in polybags at the manufacturer for cleanliness and supplied double bagged. AdvantaFlex is documented lot traceable with identification on the packaging. It meets various ISO and USP standards including Class VI, European Pharmacopoeia 3.2.2.1 standards, REACH, RoHS and California Prop 65 compliant. AdvantaFlex is available with validated sterility assurance of 10^-6 via gamma irradiation per ISO 11137 method VDmax 25. A "extractables" test portfolio or complete validation package is available upon request.

AdvantaFlex TPE tubing is included in NewAge Industries' Rx-360 Joint Audit Program for Single-Use Systems. Custom lengths, sizes, and packaging are available.
