Latex-Free and Natural Rubber Compounds
Latex-Free
Allergy to latex was first recognized in the late 1970s. Since then, it has become a major health concern as an increasing number of people in the work place were affected. Health care workers exposed to latex gloves or medical products containing latex are especially at risk. It is estimated that 8-12% of health care workers are latex sensitive. Between 1988-1992, the Federal Drug Administration (FDA) received more than 1000 reports of adverse health effects from exposure to latex, including 15 deaths due to such exposure.
Fulflex has developed ISOPUR™, a unique blend of synthetic polymers that is 100% latex-free and eliminates the need for FDA labeling requirements. Fulflex has the ability to customize color, modulus and cross-section to meet specific product or manufacturing requirements.
In addition to ISOPUR™ Fulflex has other synthetic blends formulated for various industrial requirements. For more information contact a Fulflex representative today
