APIS® Synthetic Wound Matrix

Powerful yet simple relief for everyday chronic and acute wounds

APIS® is an advanced bioengineered wound care product for managing chronic, acute, and surgical wounds.  Made with a collagen derivative, Manuka honey, and hydroxyapatite, APIS supports improved wound healing by covering and protecting the wound, absorbing exudate, and creating a moist wound environment. See a physician testimonial or view the APIS Clinical Case Book.

  • 2x faster wound closure rates than the standard of care, even in stalled, chronic wounds.1-3*
  • Lower pain scores in surgical wounds reported by patients.4*
  • Powerful microenvironment support; inhibits gram-positive and negative bacterial growth (99.99% reduction in-vitro).5* Suppresses matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) release from macrophages.6-7* Increases angiogenic growth factor secretion from fibroblasts, in vitro.6-7*
  • Highly conformable sheet; maximizing contact within the wound bed.
  • Sterile and shelf stable at room temperature; available in small sizes (1.6x1.6cm, 2.5x2.5cm, 5x5cm).
  • 510(k) clearance #K222143: synthetic wound matrix indicated for acute (e.g., surgical) and chronic (DFU, VLU, PU) wounds.

In Vitro data demonstrates 99.99% (4 log) reduction in gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria5*
