Ground-breaking products that stop bleeding and save lives took the world by storm last month when Celox™ travelled to Germany to showcase their life changing range of materials to an international audience at Medica – the largest medical technologies fair in the world.

The latest Celox™ range were on display, including the new Celox™ Gauze, US retail and US hospital ranges.

Celox™ - manufactured by MedTrade - rapidly controls moderate to severe bleeding from arterial, deep arterial or high flow sites within seconds of application by attracting red blood cells to its surface and forming a strong gel plug which seals the wound.

Since its introduction to the US market in 2006, Celox’s™ ability to quickly clot blood has made it a popular choice for US special forces and with police, fire departments and ambulance crews in dealing with life threatening incidents.

Celox™ has been proved to rapidly and reliably stop major bleeding in serious wounds, whether occurring on the battlefield, through knife lacerations, gunshots or from work related incidents.

Celox™ works independently of temperature and the bodies own blood clotting mechanisms. It is able to clot blood in the presence of anti-coagulants such as Heparin and Coumadin and to clot hypothermic blood. These special properties make it suitable for treating all types of problem bleeding.

Craig Hardy, CEO of MedTrade, said:
“The battlefield format of Celox™ has received an outstanding reception. It was fantastic to be able to display the Celox™ range at MEDICA and we are already talking to distributors from across the globe about future opportunities.”

MEDICA is the largest medical technologies fair in the world and took place between 18-21 November at the Messe Düsseldorf.
