This 15g sachet of Celox Haemostatic Granules works to clot blood, including hypothermic blood and blood containing Warfarin or Heparin, stopping life-threatening bleeds within minutes. Celox Haemostatic Granules are ideal for irregularly shaped wounds and multiple injuries, and reliably stop even arterial bleeding. Pour the granules into the wound, pack them in, and then apply pressure with a dressing.

This is an ideal product for emergency services, military use, corporate security, high-profile public venues or high-risk industries and workplaces, including building sites, oil rigs, petrochemical plants, heavy industry, work with dangerous animals, motorsport, tree surgery and glass cutting.

How Celox Works
Celox™ blood clotting granules are actually very high surface area flakes. When they come in contact with blood, Celox™ swells, gels, and sticks together to make a gel like plug, without generating any heat. Celox™ blood clotting agent does not set off the normal clotting cascade, it only clots the blood it comes directly into contact with.

This mode of action has a number of major benefits:

• Clots hypothermic blood.
• Clots blood treated with blood-thinning drugs (Heparin,  Warfarin or Coumadin.
• No heat generated.
• Celox is easily removed from the wound.

Severe traumatic blood loss quickly leads to the victim becoming hypothermic, irrespective of the outside temperature. Hypothermic blood is coagulopathic (does not clot normally) and so becomes harder to stop.  

Because of the way Celox works, it is just as effective in stopping bleeding in hypothermic blood as it is in normal temperature blood and independent testing confirms this.

Blood thinners (anticoagulants) and anti-platelet therapy
Celox Granules work even where there is Heparin or Warfarin (Coumadin) in the blood. An increasing number of people are on anticoagulants, presenting an extra challenge if they are injured. Celox has been tested and shown to clot heparinized blood.1 Further independent laboratory tests have been published using Celox on blood containing heparin or warfarin.

No Heat
Celox blood clotting agents do not produce any heat at all in use, unlike some mineral-based hemostats.
