CryoGel Technology

A proprietary hydrated polymer platform for dermal contact and active delivery applications.

Developed over more than two decades, CryoGel is a soft, conformable hydrated polymer platform designed to maintain moisture and selected active ingredients in close contact with the skin.

The Technology

A Versatile Hydrated Polymer Platform

CryoGel is a proprietary PVA-based hydrated polymer technology developed for prolonged dermal contact. Its physical structure allows the material to retain high levels of water while remaining soft, flexible and conformable against the skin.

The platform can be formulated to incorporate selected active ingredients within the hydrated matrix, creating potential for a range of topical and dermal delivery applications.

Hydrated Matrix

PVA-based polymer structure retaining high water content

Skin Contact

Soft, conformable material maintaining close dermal contact

Active Delivery Potential

Incorporated actives within the hydrated matrix

Platform Properties

Core Capabilities

High Water Content

Designed to retain substantial levels of moisture within the polymer matrix.

Conformable Contact

Soft and flexible, allowing close contact with the contours of the skin.

Active Incorporation

Selected active ingredients can be incorporated within the hydrated material.

Release Potential

The matrix can be investigated as a vehicle for controlled or sustained release from the gel.

Cooling Contact

The hydrated material provides a naturally cool and soothing skin-contact experience.

Solid Delivery Format

Provides an alternative to conventional creams, liquids and disposable sheet formats.

Applications

Platform Applications

CryoGel is a platform technology rather than a single finished product. Its properties allow it to be investigated across a range of skin-contact and dermal applications.

Dermal Delivery

Potential use as a hydrated vehicle for selected active ingredients applied to the skin.

Skin Contact & Hydration

High-moisture gel formats for prolonged, conformable contact with the skin.

Research & Development

A materials platform suitable for further investigation across cosmetic, dermatological and medical research applications.

Development

Developed Over More Than Two Decades

The CryoGel platform has evolved through extensive formulation, materials development and product-development work over more than twenty years.

Ongoing work continues to characterise the material, its compatibility with selected active ingredients, and its potential across a range of dermal applications.
