Adjunct to Sutures or Staples

Indicated for topical closure and coverage of thoroughly cleansed simple lacerations and minor cuts, where it may be used as the primary skin closure.

Sourced from India

SYLKE® begins its journey in India, the birthplace of Ayurvedic medicine. Here, we ethically harvest silk fibroin from family-tended mulberry groves, honoring centuries of healing heritage. Our process is certified Cradle to Cradle™—ensuring it is cruelty-free, pesticide-free, and fully biodegradable. By carefully removing the outer sericin layer, we reveal the pure fibroin core, a naturally occurring protein recognized for its strength and biocompatibility.

Woven in Italy

In Northern Italy, a region renowned for textile elegance, our raw silk is transformed by master craftsmen. Through a process of precise twisting and spooling, fibers are woven on advanced looms into a proprietary medical-grade mesh. This collaboration of tradition and technology creates a material that balances exceptional tensile strength with a delicate, breathable finish.
