State-of-the-art wound care adhesive
Glysious technology provides a better and more sustainable solution compared with pure silicone adhesives:
Water handling properties are significantly improved
Raw material costs and environmental footprint are reduced
Active substances can be included and released controlled to further improve skin conditions and healing
Distinctive features
Water handling and permeability
Significantly improved water handling properties compared with pure silicone:
-
Increases with glycerol content
-
More than twice as per-meable than pure silicone
Keeps mechanical integrity upon water uptake
Protection of periwound
Moisturises the periwound skin due to controlled release of glycerol
Ensures moist wound bed
Treatment with actives
Targeted, controlled dosing rate of active substances over extended time for further skin enhancement and healing
Preservation of enzymes and antioxidants, e.g. Aloe Vera
Material cost & CO2 footprint reduction
Glycerol replaces silicone leading to:
​
-
reduced materials costs (up to 30%)
​
-
reduced carbon footprint (up to double-digit saving)
Technology behind
Versatile, proprietary platform based on unique release mechanism and distinctive material features – targeted a range of skin care and life science applications.
​
Glysious technology originates from a multi-year research project at the Danish Polymer Centre of the Technical University of Denmark.
