FAQS

The single-use GelMax® water-soluble sachet absorbs and gels biological fluids and a wide variety of chemical products routinely used in the laboratory. The GelMax water-soluble sachet is very useful in reducing the disposal costs of liquid infectious biomedical waste.Upon contact with liquids, its water-soluble film dissolves and the super-absorbent powder disperses to gel them, thus limiting the risk of spilling and splashing.

The small size of the pouch allows it to be used in small containers - ostomy pouches removed from the patient, suction jars. Its use is recommended in departments such as : 

  • Intensive Care Unit
  • Intensive Care
  • Digestive Surgery
  • Emergency
  • Maternity
  • Rehabilitation
  • EHPAD
  • Geriatric units 
  • Hospitalization at home
  • Care at home
