Better care begins
with a different
way of thinking.

What if infection control and tissue repair were developed together?

That question drives Gelion Care. We bring plasma physics and biomaterials together to investigate a new generation of active hydrogels for wound care.

FROM IDEA TO INVESTIGATION

Science you
can build on.

Our platform combines the reactive chemistry of plasma with the versatility of hydrogels. We’re exploring how these materials can deliver active species locally.

Nitric oxide is one molecule at the heart of this ambition — a small part of biology with exciting research potential.

NO / NITRIC OXIDE
Two atoms.
New possibilities.
01 / ACTIVATE

Start with plasma.

Generate reactive species through atmospheric plasma technology.

02 / ENCAPSULATE

Shape the material.

Bring active chemistry into a hydrogel designed for local application.

03 / INVESTIGATE

Understand the potential.

Study release, antimicrobial activity and compatibility with healing tissue.

Our platform is in development. Safety and clinical effectiveness remain to be established.

INSPIRED BY ENERGY. DRIVEN BY PURPOSE.

Born from
lightning.

Turning a remarkable state of matter
into a new direction for biomaterials.

Because healing
is personal.

We’re exploring where our platform could make a meaningful difference — starting with the need to heal.

01Burn wounds+
INITIAL FOCUS

Investigating new approaches to infection control while considering the needs of fragile, healing tissue.

02Chronic wounds+
FUTURE DIRECTION

Exploring the potential of active-species delivery for wounds that struggle to heal, including diabetic foot ulcers and other hard-to-heal wounds.

03Skin health+
EXPLORATORY RESEARCH

Looking beyond wounds to understand where the hydrogel platform could support future skin applications.

Funding

A big step toward smarter burn wound care via NWO Demonstrator Grant

NWO Demonstrator supports researchers in translating promising research results into a working demonstrator or Minimum Viable Product (MVP) with clear market potential. Funding can cover technical development, validation, and knowledge-utilisation activities needed to prepare the technology for transfer to an external party or for commercialisation through a spin-off/company.
