MaxGel DressingHydrogel Structure

Hydrogel structure

Hydrogel absorbing water

Hydrogel are formed by natural and synthetic polymers cross-linked in solid state or solution by radiation. The spaces between Hydrogel chains are accessible for diffusion of solutes, therefore, Hydrogel absorb fluid in the amount up to thousand times of their dry weight, but do not dissolve.


MaxGel Dressing Moisture Exchange Therapy

Absorbing exudatesfrom wound

Sustained hydration

The dressing releases moisture to the wound and at the same time it absorb wound discharge; These fluids exchange movements clear the wound and create a humid environment where the epidermis growth and epithelization / granulation is favorable.


Product Profile

Based on four Clinical Researches MaxGel has received:

Israel ministry of health approval No. 16390000


MaxGel - Product Profile Aqueous composition consist of natural (Agar) and synthetic polymers (Povidone & Polyethylene Glycol) with over 90% water.

Fully transparent (allows clear wound monitoring), elastic and yet mechanically strong.

Does not include any drug (free from drugs interaction)

Manufactured in varies sizes for the therapist convenience.

Stored in room temperature or refrigerated for increased Cooling Effect.
