BIOMED sutures are uniquely high quality CE certified, featuring 300 series siliconised steel needles. These needles offer superior characteristics in terms of ductility, flexibility, penetration, and resistance to breakage. All needles are drilled-end, not channel-end, which significantly reduces bleeding and tissue trauma during passage.

FARMACTIVE Dressings are the highest quality, CE / MDR certified dressings designed for the optimum management of a wide range of surgical and non-surgical wounds, including grafts, exudative and infected wounds, and diabetic leg ulcers.

Proper care extends the life and maintains the integrity of your surgical instruments. Always follow manufacturer’s instructions for cleaning, disinfection, and sterilisation. Generally, instruments should be rinsed immediately after use to prevent debris from drying, then thoroughly cleaned (manual or ultrasonic), inspected, and sterilised before storage. Use appropriate cleaning solutions and lubricants as recommended.

Detailed specifications for each product are available on their respective product pages on our website. If you require further information, please contact our support team.
