Biomedical’s Ulteeva Purity™ portfolio continues to evolve and expand to solve your most difficult clinical challenges. Whether you are looking to extend the life of joint implants, enable your minimally invasive procedures or a find a sustainable alternative to ePTFE, Ulteeva Purity™ can do it all!
We work with partners worldwide to create innovative medical devices that support patient healing- and bring progress to life
Of clinical use for our Ulteeva Purity™ polyethylenes.
Of experience in the field of UHMWPE fiber.
Of experience within our polyethylene innovation team.
With its high strength at low-profile, our Ulteeva Purity™ fiber is considered the gold standard in UHMWPE solutions for a wide range of orthopedic, cardiovascular, and spine applications. It comes in a variety of high-contrast colors and densities and is ideal for use in suture, braid, cable, and textile constructs.
Welcome to the world’s first medical grade polyethylene membrane. For years, medical device designers have relied on expanded polytetrafluorethylene (ePTFE) to create vascular stent grafts. This superior polyethylene membrane delivers high performance while meeting the growing regulatory need for a PFAS-free solution.
This medical grade UHMWPE powder delivers all the properties you would expect in orthopedic applications and joint reconstruction – where our deep domain knowledge enables us to be especially competitive. We even offer a biobased version of Ulteeva Purity™ powder, with no compromise on performance.

Our Ulteeva Purity™ fiber is the gold standard in Medical Grade UHMWPE fiber solutions. You can leverage our fibers to enable your minimally invasive procedures.
Our Ulteeva Purity™ fiber is 15 times stronger than steel and available in a variety of high-contrast colors and linear densities. This makes them ideal for use in a wide range of suture, braid, cable, and textile designs and applications. With a proven track record of superior technical performance Ulteeva Purity™ fiber provides you with peace of mind.
Our Ulteeva Purity™ membrane is a highly porous sheet with excellent biostability and biocompatibility. You can leverage our membrane as a sustainable alternative to ePTFE.
Our Ulteeva Purity™ membrane features an expected lower creep rate, preventing elongation for better dimensional stability for medical devices. With an anticipated higher wear resistance, it is designed for durability, making it suitable for long-term implant applications. Its thinner yet stronger construction allows for easy shaping, lamination, and attachment, for more efficient use
Our Ulteeva Purity™ powder has excellent impact and abrasion resistance properties. You can leverage our powder to extend the life of your joint implants.
Our Ulteeva Purity™ medical grade powder is based on a proven polyethylene platform with a long clinical history. In fact, our extensive experience in orthopedics and joint reconstruction enables us to be especially competitive in UHMWPE powder – enabling you to create tomorrow’s solutions today.
Ulteeva Purity™ technologies remain versatile, sustainable, and reliable across a wide range of indications aimed at improving patient comfort and reducing the treatment burden.
No matter where you are in your product development journey, at dsm-firmenich Biomedical we have the proven materials, capabilities and expertise to help make your vision a reality.
Currently, options for RCR are very limited to temporary implants that only last a few weeks. In response to the market’s need for a permanent solution, our Biomedical team created a novel and functional prototype for our partner, one of the largest orthopedic device companies in the world.
