State-of-the-art wound care adhesive
State-of-the-art wound care adhesive
Water handling properties significantly improved compared to classical adhesives
Raw material costs and environmental footprint are reduced
Active substances can be included in the final product to accelerate wound healing
​
Distinctive features of technology in cosmetic
Water handling
Significantly improved water handling properties compared with pure silicone products
Increases with glycerol content
Keeps mechanical integrity upon water uptake
High permeability
Glycerol-silicone adhesive is more than twice as permeable compared with pure silicone products
Protection of periwound
Low risk of skin irritation
Few, well-known ingredients
Preservatives and stabilizers are not needed
Environmental footprint reduction
Reduced carbon footprint as glycerol replaces silicone compared with pure silicone products
​
-
Pending composition up to double-digit saving
Material cost reduction
Reduced material costs as glycerol replaces silicone compared with pure silicone products
​
-
Pending composition up to 30% saving
Treatment with actives
-
Targeted, controlled dosing rate of active substances over extended time
​
-
Preservation of enzymes and antioxidants, e.g. Aloe Vera
Examples of technology key features in cosmetic
An attractive feature in wound care:
​Water absorption and permeability that increase with glycerol content
phr: weight parts of glycerol per hundred weight parts of silicone
Glysious wound care adhesives is outperforming state-of-the-art dressings in both low and high exudating environment
Comparative study: Glysious technology compared with advanced wound care adhesives in the market. Tested on 10 common pathogens in chronic wounds.

Examples of technology key features in cosmetic
phr: weight parts of glycerol per hundred weight parts of silicone
Same technology - various delivery devices for wound care applications: film, foam, cream and spray
Technology behind
Versatile, proprietary platform based on unique release mechanism and distinctive material features
– targeted a range of cosmetic and life science applications.
​
Glysious technology originates from multi-year research at the Danish Polymer Centre of the Technical University of Denmark.
