Giltech has worked extensively with alginate technologies since it was founded in 1984 and its most prominent success story is Sorbsan®, a novel wound dressing whose active constituent is calcium alginate. Sorbsan® has achieved a global brand identity as a preferred hospital wound care product and is now marketed throughout Europe, North America and Japan by Unomedical. AlgiSanTM is the next generation in alginate-based wound care technology. A high performance alginate foam which offers all of the advantages of traditional alginate dressings but with superior exudate handling capacity, non-adherence, ease of removal and conformability, AlgiSanTM has been developed for application in cavity wounds and tissue engineering as well as traditional wound care. AlgiSanTM can be pre-formed as sterile foam pads or can be applied as an instant foam dressing using our patented Twin Can aerosol system. |
