MedCu Technologies is the world’s first provider of wound dressing products that are impregnated with copper oxide microparticles.
Leveraging copper’s potent antimicrobial properties, MedCu provides a unique proposition to address acute, critical and chronic wounds. The copper-based wound dressings follow the successful commercialization of copper compounds impregnation into various fabrics and polymers after 15 years of research and protected by multiple patents worldwide.
The Power Of Copper
Copper is an essential nutrient mineral with broad spectrum potent anti-microbial efficacy.
Proprietary Technology
Copper microparticles are embedded into fibers, substrates and polymers very early during production with no significant changes to the manufacturing process.
Medical Benefits
Used for wound management, health, and wellness purposes for thousands of years, Copper is safe, biocompatible, non-sensitizing and non-irritating to the skin.
RANGE OF PRODUCTS
MedCu dressings are single-use wound dressing with an internal absorbent layer and one or two external non-woven, non-adherent layers. All layers are impregnated with copper oxide particles. The dressings are non-irritant, non-sensitizing, and are available in 7 configurations, with or without an adhesive contour.
