MB-Collagen
MB-Collagen is a porous, sponge-like collagen wound dressing derived from natural porcine collagen. By helping to balance elevated protease activity in chronic wounds, it supports the formation of granulation tissue and provides a biocompatible scaffold for cell migration. Its fully resorbable structure conforms to the wound bed, supports new tissue growth and creates a suitable environment for epithelialization.

What is it?
A sponge-like wound dressing made from natural collagen of porcine origin.
What is it made of?
MB-Collagen is a porous, sponge-like collagen matrix derived from natural collagen of porcine origin, with its cellular components removed. Thanks to its three-dimensional open-pore structure, it softens on contact with exudate, conforms to the wound bed and provides a biocompatible scaffold for cell attachment and the development of granulation tissue.
Why use it?
The assessments and comparisons in this section are the manufacturer’s own statements. Use of the product in a patient requires assessment by a physician.
Collagen dressings are used to guide healing biologically by delivering collagen — the fundamental building block of wound healing — directly to the wound bed. The natural collagen scaffold provides a suitable micro-environment for cell attachment, migration and proliferation, contributing to more organized, higher-quality granulation tissue. At the same time, by binding excess proteases (e.g. MMPs), it balances the wound environment, protects granulation tissue and helps epithelialization progress in a more controlled way. In clinical practice, it is preferred for achieving more predictable and physiological healing, particularly in chronic wounds with delayed healing.
Compared with many other collagen dressings, MB-Collagen is not a material that “merely fills/covers”; it is a sponge-like collagen matrix that aims to balance the chronic wound micro-environment by binding excessive collagen-degrading enzymes (MMPs) and to activate fibroblast colonization and granulation tissue formation. In addition, its full resorbability, good adaptation to the wound bed and microbial/mechanical barrier function allow more predictable use in clinical practice. Its manufacture in Germany, the absence of a risk of human-derived viral transmission through the use of a porcine source, and the availability of its documentation as a Class III medical device under the MDR (IFU/certificates/SSCP) are also important differentiators in terms of quality and traceability.
Indications
MB-Collagen is suitable for supporting wound healing, particularly in traumatic wounds and in chronic wounds with delayed healing (especially pressure sores/decubitus ulcers and leg ulcers).
Manufacturer’s warning
MB-Collagen is for single use only, cannot be resterilized and must not be used together with silver nitrate, chlorine-releasing antiseptics or substances that denature proteins.

How to use
- 01
Assess the wound
Clinically assess whether the wound is infected, its healing stage and the amount of exudate. MB-Collagen is used only on non-infected wounds.
- 02
Prepare the wound
If necessary, cleanse the wound appropriately. Do not use antiseptics that can denature proteins or silver-containing agents, and do not apply the product to actively infected wounds.
- 03
Choose a suitable size
Choose a size of MB-Collagen that covers the entire wound surface without overlapping the edges. If there is very little exudate, moisten the product with normal saline or Ringer’s solution before application.
- 04
Apply
Under aseptic conditions, place MB-Collagen directly on the moist wound surface. Secure it with a suitable secondary dressing (gauze or nonwoven compress) over it.
- 05
Follow-up and changes
The change interval depends on the amount of exudate: several times a day with heavy exudate, once a day with moderate exudate and every few days with low exudate. Monitor clinical signs of inflammation regularly.
