Featured Products

Glubran 2

Glubran® 2

Glubran® 2 is a ready for use, synthetic, biodegradable surgical glue. It is a Class III CE medical device marked for internal and external use. Glubran® 2 has high adhesive and haemostatic properties and once it is polymerised it creates an efficient antiseptic barrier against the most diffused infective or pathogenic agents during the surgical intervention. Glubran® 2 polymerises quickly in contact with live tissue and wet environment creating a thin and elastic film having high tensile properties which guarantee strong adhesion to the tissues. This film naturally conforms with the tissues on which it was applied; it is not permeable to liquids and is not altered by blood or organic liquids.
Glubran Tiss 2

Glubran® Tiss 2

Glubran® Tiss 2 is a topical skin adhesive with two components (NBCA+OCA) which provide high tensile strength, good elasticity, fast closure (40-60 sec) and a polymerization temperature of 45°C. The fluidity of the product, ergonomic bottle and dedicated tip allow a controlled release of the glue even in difficult to treat areas.
Glutack
