DuPont de Nemours, Inc. DD recently announced the launch of its Liveo Pharma TPE Ultra-Low Temp Tubing, a new thermoplastic elastomer tubing. This product has been designed keeping in mind the ability required to withstand low temperatures in many biopharmaceutical processing applications.

This ISO Class 7 cleanroom-manufactured tubing is sterilizable, weldable and sealable, and offers improved elastomer toughness and ductility. The product’s resistance to bending, good pumpability, low spallation, along with phthalate-free tubing's purity make it an ideal solution for meeting the biopharmaceutical processing industry's needs.

The new Liveo Pharma TPE Ultra-Low Temp Tubing is the second TPE tubing product introduced by DD in recent years and joins Liveo Pharma TPE Tubing in its solution portfolio for biopharma processing applications. The range of biopharma processing applications includes numerous silicone-based tubing and overmolded assembly products. The new solution is produced with high-quality principles and facilitates compatibility with alternative TPE tubing offerings.

DD stock has lost 2.4% over the past year compared with the 18.8% decline of the industry.
