Choice Matters.

It's about giving our customers exactly what they want. In biomatrices or in medical coatings, we have versatile and marketable solutions. In wound care, we offer covalently cross-linked denatured collagen platforms for various applications for drug delivery. In medical coatings, we offer our customers covalent processes to apply innovative hydrophilic and lubricious, durable coatings to polymeric medical devices. The collagen-based products are FDA approved.

Covalon offers processes that are:

  • simple
  • aqueous-based
  • proprietary
  • cost-effective
  • reimbursable

The technology platforms have been carefully engineered to be biocompatible. The modifications to Covalon's base and patented technologies allow for distinct applications to meet the needs of various modern medical interventions and customers' needs and specifications.
