CAPROLEN Mesh
Polyproplene / Poly (glycolide-co-caprolactone ) (PP/PGCL)
Sterile Synthetic Partially Absorbable Composite Mesh
Caprolen Mesh is a two-component semi-absorbable surgical mesh with polypropylene and poly (glycolid-co-caprolacton) (PP and PGCL) segments. Caprolen mesh surgical mesh is used for repairing soft and sensitive tissues such as hernia. This surgical mesh is sterilized with ethylene oxide and it is a light mesh with perfect grip thanks to uncoated structure. This mesh offers high-level initial hardness like the heavy meshes as well as perfect flexibility after absorption (soft mesh). After the poly (glycolid-co-caprolacton, 75/25) components absorbed, a polypropylene mesh stays in the surgical operation region to support the tissue. Poly (glycolid-co-caprolacton, 75/25) structure is the same as the Monokaprol Suture in our suture category.

- Proper burst strength with minimized amount of PP
Segmented-pie monofilament structure
- Excellent flexibility after absorption (Soft mesh)
- Reduced risk of infection
- Minimized pain and discomfort
Better tissue attachement due to large pores
Violet strips help accurate mesh positioning
