By Speciality Fibres and Materials Ltd
Antibacterial, Highly Absorbent with enhanced wet strength SFM's novel silver nanotechnology encapsulated in our highly absorbent modified cellulose fibres. Sustainable Fibres and fabrics directly derived from abundant and naturally occurring resources Biocompatibility Unique de-watering process which enhances the fibre strength, reduces fibre shed and provides increased biocompatibility. Absorbency Optimal fibre spacing for increased absorbency. Conformable dressings that gel when in contact with wound exudate. Wet Strength Optimised needle bonding process designed to balance the conflicting requirements of strength and absorbency Product specifications This is our latest product to join the Carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) family. A proprietary blend of three fibers, which encapsulates SFM’s novel silver nanotechnology developed for its low cytotoxicity profile with consistent antibacterial and antimicrobial efficacy. In markets requiring a CE mark, the product is supplied as cut pieces, packaged and sterile. Our latest novel silver CMC is offered as 120gsm, 160gsm, and 200gsm. Our silver CMC is CE marked. Please check our modified cellulose options for non-silver versions. - Close entanglement of fibre for enhanced wet tensile strength. - High vertical absorption of exudate, protects wound edge and surrounding skin from maceration. - Maintains a moist healing environment. - High dressing strength and integrity (1). - Retains bacteria in the dressing. - Sustained antibacterial and antimicrobial activity(2). - Conformable dressing. - Supports autolytic debridement. - various GSM and cut sizes available on request - Biodegradable material (1) MCYAgSD-10 (2) MCYAgTTR-103 - Effective against: Gram positive and gram negative bacteria - Moderately to heavily exuding superficial or deep wounds - Acute or chronic wounds(leg ulcers, pressure ulcers (Stage II to IV) and diabetic ulcers) - Surgical wounds (e.g post-operative, wounds left to heal by secondary intent and donor sites) - Traumatic wounds (e.g abrasions and lacerations) - Wounds that are prone to bleeding (e.g mechanically or surgically debrided and donor sites) - Partial thickness burns

Antibacterial - Absorbent - Conformable Effective against bacteria such as E. Coli, Staphylococcus Aureus and Yeast (Candida Albicans) Sustainable Fibres and fabrics directly derived from abundant and naturally occurring resources Biocompatibility Unique de-watering process which enhances the fibre strength, reduces fibre shed and provides increased biocompatibility. Absorbency Optimal fibre spacing for increased absorbency. Conformable dressings that gel when in contact with wound exudate. Wet Strength Optimised needle bonding process designed to balance the conflicting requirements of strength and absorbency Product specifications - High absorbency - High conformability - Antibacterial performance - Strong dressing - Reduced fibre shed - various GSM and cut sizes available on request - Biodegradable material SAB-STA-087 Moderately and highly exuding wounds and superficial or deep wounds such as: - Pressure sores - Venous / Arterial leg ulcers - Diabetic foot ulcers - Surgical wounds - Skin donor and skin grafting sites This dressing is effective against Gram positive and negative bacteria, such as E. Coli, Staphylococcus Aureus and yeast (Candida Albicans) All our products are manufactured in the UK, from class 8 clean room facilities located in Coventry. Our alginates, reinforced alginates, gelling fibre products are all manufactured from raw materials that are sustainable and using a manufacturing process which minimises waste as far as possible. Our silver calcium alginate dressings are available from 130 GSM to 200 GSM, although other GSM can easily be accommodated. We can currently provide our products in several sizes from 5cm x 5cm cut pieces to 20cm x 30cm, although we can provide larger sizes on demand. We can provide our alginate and modified cellulose fabric in roll format, slit reels, cut pieces, ropes depending on requirements. These can be provided non-sterile or packed and sterile. We keep some stock for the most commonly requested sizes for our x-ray detectable yarns, and therefore can deliver these on-demand. Most of our products are made to order, and whilst we often will work 12 weeks ahead with most of our customers to help manage a smooth continuity of supply which is particularly relevant with the current Covid-19 pandemic; We can often deliver in a few weeks and will try our best to meet your schedule. Packed and sterile products however will be between 8 to 12 weeks once the packaging has been fully approved. SFM implements and complies with the ISO 13485 (EU, Canada, RoW), 21 CFR 820 (USA) and Ordinance 169 (Japan). We are experts in the overall planning and delivery of regulatory compliance throughout a product's life cycle. We deliver products CE marked and or FDA cleared. Our Regulatory Affairs and Quality team manage our Integrated QMS.
