DEHP FREE PVC
PVC tubing is a flexible, very versatile tubing that is economical and has been used for decades - seemingly everywhere. Unfortunately, most PVC flexible products contain plasticizers known as phthalates, specifically di(2-ethylhexyl)phthalate (DEHP) – which has been determined to be one of the top 6 chemical threats to humans by the European Union and is restricted in use by the REACH program
ROWE INDUSTRIES ROWEFLEX PVC TUBING is DEHP free eliminating any risks which may be associated with the phthalate based plasticizer and still has the versatility of PVC.
ROWEFLEX PVC is very flexible and resilient and is a “drop in” replacement for most applications that currently use PVC tubing that have DEHP as the plasticizer.
ROWEFLEX PVC will not leach dangerous plasticizer into the fluid stream.
ROWEFLEX PVC resists kinking and abrasion damage and is designed for long service life.
ROWEFLEX PVC can be ETO or Gamma sterilized and is made from NSF 61 material.
