Non-Woven Solutions in Dental Surgery

We visited the International Dental Show (IDS) show, Cologne in March 2023 to explore the use of electrospun membranes for bone tissue guide repair dental membranes. This is what we learnt: Studies have shown that decellularized collagen outperforms synthetic fibrous non-woven membranes, and synthetics are only used if patients request for them, for example to… Read more »

Our approach in covering technology

We deposit fibrous membranes directly onto metal and non-metal devices, using expertise that we have gained over a decade of producing innovative non-woven medical textiles. We select from a wide range of GMP-grade degradable or non-degradable polymers to tailor a medical textile covering to a customer’s device. Both external and internal surfaces can be coated… Read more »
