Additionally, there have been significant deviations from the Directive over time, forcing a departure from the document's original objectives and goals of maintaining the health and safety of IVD devices.
The newer IVDR included changes meant to strengthen the effectiveness of the legislation and better address IVD safety.
OEMs who are already registered will have until 2024 to conform to the new IVDR.

Until now, finding a material to do the job, other than liquid silicone rubber, has been impossible.
With a TPE, you won’t have to contend with more complicated silicone tooling, or the extra mixing, post curing, and deflashing steps that liquid silicone rubber requires.
Blue jean stain-resistant TPEs have lower manufacturing and total part costs compared to silicone.
