EPIGLU®: Advanced Tissue Adhesive for Modern Wound Management

Meyer-Haake’s EPIGLU® represents a breakthrough in wound care technology, offering a superior alternative to traditional suturing methods. Developed with the needs of modern medical facilities in mind, EPIGLU® is an ethyl-2-cyanoacrylate adhesive that excels in facilitating rapid, effective, and minimally invasive wound closure.

Key Features and Benefits

Innovative Adhesion Technology: EPIGLU®’s unique formulation ensures quick polymerization, allowing for swift and secure wound closure. This rapid action reduces treatment time and enhances patient throughput in busy medical settings.

Ease of Application: Designed for convenience, EPIGLU® comes with disposable pipettes, simplifying the application process. This user-friendly approach is ideal for diverse medical environments, including private practices, operation theatres, and emergency rooms.
Infection Control: By forming a secure seal, EPIGLU® minimizes the risk of wound infection. Its composition actively inhibits bacterial growth, as verified by the renowned Fresenius Institute, ensuring a safer healing process.
Patient Comfort and Recovery: Patients treated with EPIGLU® experience less discomfort compared to traditional suturing, as it eliminates the need for stitch channels and reduces tensile stress on the wound. The adhesive naturally detaches after 6-10 days, mimicking the process of scab shedding, allowing for uninterrupted personal hygiene and faster return to daily activities.
Cost-Effective Solution: EPIGLU® is an economical choice for medical facilities, offering a favorable cost-performance ratio. Its long shelf life further enhances its value proposition.
