Industry = Pharmaceuticals

Press Release Summary = A new silicone tubing formulation has been developed by
AdvantaPure to meet the demands of peristaltic pumps. The material meets Class VI
and FDA standards and is well suited for pharmaceutical, biotech, lab, and R&D
applications.

Press Release Body = Southampton, PA - AdvantaPure announces a new silicone tubing,
designated APSPG, designed for the unique demands of peristaltic pumps. APSPG is
made to withstand repeated compression and release for consistent, dependable
performance and to far outlast standard silicone tubing. It is ideally suited for
pharmaceutical, biomedical, biotech, chemical, laboratory, and R&D applications.

APSPG is specially formulated for long life in pumps and is extremely flexible and
resilient. It offers smooth surfaces for uniform fluid flow, resistance to bacteria
build-up, and consistent pump performance. It's translucent for visual contact with
the flow and will not impart any taste or odor to critical streams.

Manufactured in a certified Class 1000 HEPA-filtered clean room, APSPG is made from
low-volatile-grade, platinum-cured silicone that meets USP Class VI and FDA 21 CFR
177.2600 standards. The tubing handles temperatures as high as 400°F (204.4°C) and
is sterilizable/autoclavable.

APSPG is stocked in ten sizes for immediate delivery. It's sealed in polybags at
manufacture, and all finished product is white room stored to maintain cleanliness.
All APSPG tubing is documented lot traceable with identification on the bags. .031"
and .063" I.D. sizes are manufactured in 25-foot lengths. Larger sizes, up to 1/2"
I.D., are stocked in 50-foot lengths. Custom sizes, lengths, and packaging are
available.
