Astute Antithrombogenic Coating uses multi-action technology to prevent thrombosis formation, mimic endothelia action and reduce deposition onto the surface. The coating uses an active antithrombogenic agent and combined this with additional passive elements to provide a high-performance, non-leaching antithrombogenic coating.

The active agent actively stops blood activation and prevents thrombus from forming. Blocking the activation of blood prevents a thrombus forming downstream and reduces risks to the patient. The passive elements prevent platelet adhesion and deposition of blood components onto the surface. These additional elements protect the surface from interacting with blood and improves the long-term stability of the coating. This combination of an active agent and passive elements confront the complex challenges of thrombosis to mimic the endothelial layer.

Our multi-action technology enhances device performance for significant periods of time without leaching or use of toxic components.

The Astute^® Antithrombogenic Coating provides market leading performance without compromising on safety or quality.

AvertPlus is a multi-action antimicrobial coating which reduces infections. The non-leaching, multi-action coating, uses contact-kill technology and targets a broad spectrum of bacteria. The contact-kill technology causes cell lysis hinders colonisation of bacteria and prevents biofilm formation. It uses a combination of active agents and passive elements to provide the contact-kill technology, prevents biofilm formation and deposition of onto the surface.

The contact kill technology reduces the bacterial presence and consistently provides high-performance antimicrobial activity throughout the duration of the coating. The active antimicrobial activity is non-leaching and does not use toxic chemicals, such as silver or chlorhexidine. The passive elements hinder proteins and other microbes from depositing onto the service. The combination of these two components reduce bacterial presence, prevent bacterial colonisation on the surface and reduces the ability of biofilm to form.

The AvertPlus™ Antimicrobial Coating is suited for long-term applications without adding risks to the patient. The non-leaching, non-toxic components provide high-performance antimicrobial activity whilst reducing concerns to the user and patient.

The Assist Hydrophilic Coating is a multi-action coating which significantly reduces the friction on a surface, as well as providing surface protection benefits. Our technology is available in both ultraviolet (UV) cured and heat cured forms to support the application of the coating onto a variety of shapes, materials, and surfaces (internal or external) of the device. The coating is thin and flexible, which enhances its stability and improves efficacy in challenging and long-term applications.

The multi-action coating reduces friction and improves the smoothness of surfaces. The smooth surface created by the coating restricts deposition and adhesion to the coated surface and improves laminar flow of liquids interacting with the coating. This helps to preserve the coated device in its application and reduces deposition or adhesion of components on a coated surface. The multi-action coating is activated instantly through wetting, removing the need to pre-soak the surface. This significantly reduces preparation time and allows increased usage of the device.

The Assist™ Flexible – Hydrophilic Coating uses multi-action technology to improve device insertion and removal, reduces deposition onto the surface to improve patient comfort and safety during long-term applications. We achieve a high-performance, multi-action coating without leaching (particles) or the use of cytotoxic and toxic components.
