The company is a front runner in developing wound
dressing products. Axio is the first company to design, develop and
commercialize emergency hemostat for trauma care. Their wound care
products are customized for emergency, military, vascular and dental
applications. Advanced research has resulted in the development of Axio
clotting technology (A.C.T) that stops haemorrhage within minutes after
application on wound site. Axiostat® uses chitosan, derived from
shellfish, to prevent severe bleeding immediately and to dress wounds.
Axiostat® is a must-have in first aid kits, ambulances, hospitals,
police and military vehicles as well as automobiles.

During cardio-vascular procedures, some patients

heavy bleeding due to blood thinners administered before medical
procedures. Axiostat® vascular controls this type of bleeding within a

blood components and creates a quick seal at the wound site.
