THE SOLUTION

PATHELEN® Hybrid is an innovative one-step solution designed to physically adsorb wound exudate and create optimal conditions for wound healing.

The large surface area of the fumed silica in PATHELEN® Hybrid enhances capillary action, facilitating the adsorption of wound exudate and promoting a cleaner wound environment.

PATHELEN® Hybrid is currently registered as a Class I medical device with SWISSMEDIC. We are actively preparing for reclassification under the new MDR (Medical Device Regulation) as a Class IIb device in the EU and as 510(k) in the US to further enhance its market accessibility and clinical applications.
