SupraGel™ Amorphous Wound Care Hydrogel
 |
Product Goals
SupraGel™ is a patented cross-linked sterile hydrogel containing complex carbohydrates, propylene glycol and ultra pure water.
Dependent on wound conditions, SupraGel™ has the ability to rehydrate dry necrotic tissue thus promoting rapid debridement or absorbs wound slough and excess exudate. Due to its fully cross-linked nature, no maceration occurs and SupraGel™ maintains its physical integrity throughout its use.
Technical Data
SupraGel™ is suitable for application and management of many different types of wound including leg ulcers, pressure sores, surgical wounds, exuding sloughy or necrotic wounds, first and second degree burns. SupraGel™ will rehydrate dry granulated wounds while preventing desiccation and facilitating re-epithelialisation.

- Can be left in place for up to 7 days dependent on wound condition
- Product can be used on a wide spectrum of wound types and can be removed easily and changed daily if wound is exuding heavily
- When Gel is removed it will not leave fragments behind in the wound & maceration will be avoided
- Product will absorb excess exudates from wound surface
- A balanced moist environment will be maintained at wound surface therefore enhancing the healing process
- Product will donate moisture to wound surface to prevent wound drying out
