Integral PUR elements for medical and rehabilitation equipment — armrests, handles, backrests
We manufacture integral skin polyurethane foam components for hospital beds, wheelchairs, rehabilitation equipment, dental chairs, and physiotherapy devices.
Who do we produce for?
We produce PUR parts for three main customer groups in the medical & rehabilitation.
For medical equipment manufacturers
Hospital bed armrests, wheelchair handles, dental and cosmetic chair components.
For rehabilitation equipment manufacturers
Walker handles, wheelchair backrests, rehabilitation exercise equipment components.
For medical facility equipment
Corridor handrails, medical furniture components, protective covers in hospitals and clinics.
From a real need to a PUR solution
Every part begins with the end user's situation. We show how we turn real needs into product requirements and PUR solutions.
Problem:
Medical equipment is disinfected multiple times a day, so the material must withstand >10,000 disinfection cycles without degradation.
PUR solution:
Non-porous integral skin polyurethane is resistant to alcohol, chlorine, and hydrogen peroxide.
Problem:
The patient spends hours in contact with the armrest or handle, so the element must be comfortable, warm to the touch, and ergonomic.
PUR solution:
Soft PUR core (Shore A 35–50) ensures comfort, and the integral skin is warm to the touch.
Problem:
In a hospital environment, the surface must not accumulate bacteria, so the element must have a smooth, non-porous, seamless surface.
PUR solution:
Non-porous integral skin eliminates bacteria accumulation areas — no pores = no contamination.

In household products, appearance matters, but so do durability, hygiene and user comfort. That's why it's worth seeing how integral PUR differs from more traditional solutions.
Integral PUR
- Resistance to alcohol, chlorine, and virucidal agents
- Closed cell structure — no fluid absorption
- Smooth, non-porous surface — easy disinfection
- Ergonomic shapes molded in a single cycle
- Warm touch — patient comfort during long contact
Traditional solutions
- ✕Porous materials absorb fluids and disinfectants
- ✕Seams and joints accumulate bacteria — difficult sterilization
- ✕Cold touch of metal or hard plastic — patient discomfort
- ✕Additional upholstery increases the risk of contamination
- ✕Surface degradation after repeated disinfection
Why does integral PUR work well in medicine?
Key properties of integral PUR and standards we meet in the medical & rehabilitation.
Hygiene
Non-porous, seamless surface does not accumulate bacteria. Resistant to repeated disinfection.
Patient comfort
Soft core and warm-to-touch surface — crucial for long-term contact with the body.
Ergonomics
Ability to mold shapes adapted to anatomy — important in rehabilitation and orthopedics.
Hypoallergenic
Material safe in contact with skin — does not cause allergic reactions.
Disinfection resistance
Resistance tests to isopropyl alcohol, chlorine, hydrogen peroxide — >10,000 cycles without degradation.
Hypoallergenic
Material safe in contact with patients' skin, including children and people with allergies.
