Collagen Basics
The SHC-Matrix of pure collagen is particularly well suited for use in the complex realm of indications in the area of chronic wounds.
SHC-Matrix - Jump start chronic wounds
The SHC-Matrix is comprised of collagen in its typical triple helical structure. The matrix is characterized by its high absorptive capacity which contributes to the regulation of fluid homeostasis in the wound. At the same time, naturally structured collagen fibrils are brought into the wound in large quantities. The clinical result that is achieved provides proof for the positive effect on wound healing.

The SHC-Matrix is developed to be ideally suited for the treatment of wounds. Above all, it is characterized by:
- rapid absorption of fluids,
- reduction in the activity of destructive enzymes,
- excellent adaptability to the wound shape,
- support in the epithelialisation and construction of dermal structures.
The SHC-Matrix is currently in the stage of preparation for CE-certification.
