NEXGEL Launches Turfguard to Treat Painful Turf Burns and Protect Sports-Related Wounds
December 08 2022 - 7:30AM
NEXGEL, Inc. (NASDAQ: NXGL, NXGLW), (“NEXGEL” or the “Company”), a
leading provider of ultra-gentle, high-water-content hydrogel
products for healthcare and consumer applications, announced today
that it has launched a new product dubbed Turfguard, a unique
hydrogel dressing for soothing turf burn and protecting athletic
wounds. Turfguard’s sterile silver patches, cleared by the U.S.
Food and Drug Administration, kill 99 percent of staph, MRSA and
strep.
Turfguard patches maintain a moist wound
environment and aid in removing non-viable tissues from the wound.
The patches do not pull on delicate, new or healing skin and
provide an instant cooling relief to the affected area.
Manufactured out of the Company’s facility in Langhorne, Pa.,
Turfguard is available for purchase on Amazon.com.
“For athletes, turf burns and skin abrasions are
often a common, unfortunate part of the game,” said Adam Levy,
Chief Executive Officer, NEXGEL. “Additionally, turf fields and
other shared equipment frequently house harmful bacteria, such as
MRSA, that can lead to serious health complications. NEXGEL’s
proprietary Turfguard patches can be used on superficial burns,
abrasions or lacerations and has been shown to kill staph, MRSA and
strep. What’s more, these dressings have a high-water content
making them delicate on the skin and helping the area to heal
quickly. This product is a must-have for training rooms across
football, lacrosse, wrestling, gymnastics and many other applicable
sports.”
