Adhesys Medical, a surgical adhesive company, has received a CE mark for its Mar-Cutis Flix topical skin adhesive for surgical use.

The adhesive is a polyurethane-based technology that Chief Scientific Officer Klaus-Dieter Langner said is an innovative alternative to traditional wound closing techniques that features bonding strength, fast sealing and high flexibility.

Adhesys was a U.S.-based medical device startup that was acquired by Germany’s Grünenthal Group in April of 2017.

“Having obtained the CE-Certification, we are now looking forward to further developing our technology platform and expanding the possible fields of application,” Langner said.

Grünenthal is a pharmaceutical and medical device R&D company with subsidiaries and affiliates in Europe, the U.S. and Latin America and about 5,500 employees. VTN
