Features
Knitted monofilament polypropylene
Indicated for different types of hernia repair which require a non-absorbable reinforcing material. It elicits an inflammatory reaction in tissues, followed by the deposition of a thin fibrous layer which grows through the interstices of the mesh, incorporating it into the adjacent tissue. It is neither absorbed nor subject to degradation or weakening by the action of tissue enzymes.
01
Biologically inert
02
Gives strong support for the long term
03
Excellent tensile strength and pliability
04
Knitted by a process which interlinks each fibre junction and provides for elasticity in both directions
05
Bi-directional elastic property allows adaptation to various stresses encountered in the body
06
Mesh can be cut into any desired shape or size without unravelling
