keramatrix® is an absorbable matrix rich in keratin protein that delivers Replicine™ Functional Keratin® as it dissolves into the wound. Due to the unique biological function of keratin protein, keramatrix® delivers a level performance typically associated with high cost biological dressings, in a much lower cost and much more convenient format.

FK RESTORE™ is one of nature’s most important building blocks providing structure and order, and is fundamental in the development of healthy tissues including skin, hair and nails. Keratins commonly used by hair care manufacturers are hydrolyzed i.e. they are simply small peptide fragments of one or two amino acids joined together. Keraplast’s proprietary manufacturing and processing technologies gently extract full bioactive Functional Keratin® from natural, renewable sources (sheep’s wool) for incorporation into product solutions to enhance health, beauty and well-being.

FK Scalp™ is the result of many years of understanding the impact of bio-active keratin on both skin and hair. The scalp is a unique area of human anatomy and modern day stresses impact on the scalp leaving both skin and hair less reslilient and more prone to damage. Wound Care research has established significant discoveries in how these bioactive proteins can stimulate healing, cell growth and antioxidant production. Combined with strong research findings in hair care and skin care this portfolio of world class research has led to a product ideally matched to the emerging issue of scalp health in industrialized societies.

keragelT® is a keratin enriched gel that can be used in the regular management of acute and chronic wounds of people caused by conditions similar to epidermolysis bullosa. keragelT® is a low viscosity gel designed to be easy to apply to delicate skin. Some patients and their families using keragelT® as part of daily wound management have shared their stories.

FK Protect Plus™ is extracted from wool using a mild process which results in a high MW soluble keratin protein. This natural form of protein can arrange itself into stable, cohesive films on the hair taking advantage of three dimensional interactions of amino acids within the native protein chains. FK Protect Plus™ is a strong antioxidant potential (222 micromol TEAC/100ml) arising from its unique active cystine component. The antioxidant activity enables it to scavenge free radicals at the point of formation. This protects against the force multiplying damage of UV combined with pollution.

DFK - Glow™ works synergistically with dietary collagen to boost the body’s ability to produce the right structural proteins to repair wrinkles and strengthen hair follicles and nails. This is achieved by activating skin cells that have the right nutritional input to specifically make collagen IV and collagen VII, the binding proteins that join the dermal and epidermal layers essential for smooth, wrinkle free skin as well as anchoring hair follicles into the scalp.
