We create drug-free medical device coatings that can help save thousands of lives and avoid millions of dollars in unnecessary healthcare costs each year.

BIOINVISIBLE™ is a special type of polymer that acts as a physical barrier on devices including urinary and venous catheters to orthopaedic, dental, breast, hernia mesh and vascular implants and grafts.

When coated onto implantable materials, they are ‘invisible’ to the body’s normal immune defences.

  • Drug-free
  • Reduces biofilm
  • Tested and market ready
  • Extremely stable
  • Safe (no cytotoxicity or sensitivity)
  • Anti-clotting
  • Environmentally sustainable
  • Avoids antibiotic resistance

World-class biomedical engineering. The world’s most advanced hyperbranched polyglycerol coating that can be applied at commercial scale.
