Health Care
Gelok laminate sheets are commonly incorporated into items suited for the healthcare industry and designed for spill clean-up, spill prevention or even wound care. The laminate is desirable because it quickly absorbs fluids common to the healthcare industry. It also wicks bodily fluids and drainage away from the skin and locks them in thereby promoting healing and reducing infection. Let us assist you in the laminate selection and/or the incorporation into a finished product containing the Gelok technology.
