Trendsetters -

High-tech Thermoplastic Polyurethane Materials from Bayer

When you think of what makes a trendsetter, you're not likely to think of a thermoplastic polyurethane. 

It's time to think again. 

Bayer MaterialScience is on the forefront of improving existing technology and forging new frontiers in TPU applications (download our TPU brochure).

The versatility of thermoplastic polyurethane is made up of strong polyurethane chemistry and the valuable characteristics of rubber and thermoplastic materials.  Bayer's family of thermoplastic polyurethane products, Desmopan®, Texin® and now Desmomelt® are second to none. 

Through careful selection of raw materials, these TPU resins can be tailored to a particular end-use application.  This flexibility is what makes Bayer's TPU resins so innovative. Our line of TPU products stand out from the competition by offering a broad spectrum of properties for even the most demanding applications.

While Desmomelt, Desmopan and Texin resins are our flagship brands, our product portfolio also includes Dureflex® TPU film and sheet produced by our Deerfield Urethane subsidiary.
