Systagenix wins award for wounds testing
SYSTAGENIX wound management, which employs 400 people in Gargrave, North Yorkshire, has received a major industry award.
The company has won the award for innovation and technology for the launch of WOUNDCHEK Protease Status, a diagnostic test for wounds, at the 2012 Gatwick Diamond Business Awards.
Ernest Waaser, Systagenix chief executive, said: “Bringing WOUNDCHEK Protease Status to the market is a huge achievement for Systagenix, and a long-awaited innovation milestone in the wound care field, where chronic wounds may not heal for months or even years and where diagnostics has notoriously lacked.”
Systagenix has a manufacturing and research and development base in Gargrave.
