Why Nitrile Rubber Matters in Modern Healthcare

Nitrile Rubber (NBR), also known as Buna-N or acrylonitrile butadiene rubber, has become one of the most dependable materials in the medical industry. Its chemical resistance, durability, and latex-free properties make it the preferred choice for critical applications where safety and performance cannot be compromised.

Key Material Advantages:

• Excellent protection against chemicals, oils, alcohols & bodily fluids

• Latex-free & hypoallergenic, ideal for sensitive users

• High durability & puncture resistance

• Stable performance across −40°C to 108°C

• Strong barrier properties for infection control

NBR is the backbone material behind countless medical essentials—from examination gloves to device seals, tubing, and fluid-management components.

Medical Applications Supported

• Medical & Examination Gloves

Superior strength and protection, widely used in hospitals, labs, and clinics.

• Seals, O-Rings & Gaskets

Reliable sealing for ventilators, pumps, diagnostics, and sterilisation devices.

• Tubing & Fluid Transfer Components

Designed to withstand chemicals, pressure, and repeated cleaning cycles.

• Wearable & Disposable Medical Devices

Flexible, safe, and comfortable for patient-focused products.
