KeriCure has multiple pending and approved patents surrounding the nanopolymer and nanosilver/nanopolymer technology for medical applications in skin and wound care.
About
MADE in the USA! Our nanopolymer products are formulated by KeriCure scientists in the USA and are bottled and packaged in the USA with US plastics. KeriCure’s nanopolymer technology is the FIRST FDA cleared technology that utilize the natural healing powers of water to soothe burns, rashes and irritations, while also providing a comfortable, elastic nanopolymer barrier that protects cuts and scrapes against infections. KeriCure’s drug delivery platform technology offers a unique opportunity for enhanced delivery and protection of a wide range of drugs against resistance mechanisms. A nanopolymer emulsion technology that is currently positioned as an effective topical wound and skin care product, with the ability to incorporate a variety of additives and drug products for enhanced, targeted delivery. KeriCure is the ONLY liquid bandage that is FDA cleared for post surgical use to protect incisions and excisions from infection, in addition to the standard OTC uses to protect against infection in minor cuts, burns and abrasions. Our Polymer: Developed to mimic the structure of elastin, which is responsible for the elastic nature of skin. The nanopolymer technology forms a highly elastic film that can stretch & bend without losing its structural integrity or ability to block germs. This ability is only available in KeriCure’s Nanopolymer Technology. Our NEW nano-silver technology is the FIRST to combine nano-silver with a nanopolymer delivery vehicle that can be utilized for antimicrobial wound care, coatings, and permanent antimicrobial surfaces for medical devices.
Key Benefits
KeriCure products are over 80% pure water; much improved over the alcohol, acetone, and petroleum ingredients of its competitors. KeriCure products are formulated with only two ingredients: purified water and a proprietary polyacrylate polymer in the form of nanoparticles. This technology provides the KeriCure products with the ability to be chemical and preservative free; these products do not support bacterial or fungal growth. Optimized specifically for topical application, the polymer was designed to mimic the structure of the protein elastin, which is responsible for the elastic nature of skin and gives skin its ability to bounce back after stretching. Our proprietary manufacturing process provides unique properties for the nanopolymer that is unlike any other polyacrylate polymer. When applied, the product forms a highly elastic film that can stretch, bend, and be pulled without losing its ability to block germs and provide complete coverage. This ability is only available in the KeriCure Technology, and while many other films are flexible, only KeriCure products are elastic.
