Multi Purpose ULTRASINT® TPU01

ULTRASINT® TPU01 is a versatile thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) powder optimized for HP’s Multi Jet Fusion 3D printing technology. TPU material is primarily categorized by its elasticity, abrasion resistance, and durability, making it an ideal solution for various applications.

The design freedom of TPU material enables rapid iterations and makes it particularly well-suited for mass customization and low-volume production projects. It is commonly used for detailed parts such as sports protection, footwear, orthotics and prosthetics, and automotive interior components.
