Proven Soft Tissue Source
Geistlich Nexo-Gide® is a native porcine collagen membrane
- Porcine collagen has been shown to have high homology to humans as compared to other animals used to source raw materials for medical device materials1
- Native collagen molecules and fiber structures are maintained1 and no additional materials (such as PLLA), are added

Smooth upper surface1,2
• creates an environment that supports
cell retention and containment at the
site of injury or repair
• demonstrated in pre-clinical testing
that the incidence and severity of
surrounding tissue attachment was
reduced as compared to the
surgical control, which may result
in decreased post-operative
complications for surrounding tissue

Performance Guided Processing
Geistlich’s expertise in processing ensures biocompatibility of the implant while maintaining key natural properties
Processing & purification expertise
For decades, Geistlich has proven to be a world leader in processing xenograft tissue for a variety of clinical and surgical applications
- Through our proprietary purification process, antigens, lipids and non-collagenous proteins are safely and effectively removed, reducing the likelihood of acute and chronic biological reactions1
- For more than 30 years, Geistlich has processed and distributed porcine derived products with extensive published evidence of clinical effectiveness1
Maintaining key material properties
- Native collagen molecules and fiber structures are maintained in the smooth upper surface, which is shown to support cell retention1
- Native material characteristics result in a thin, pliable membrane that is easy to handle and suture even in a hydrated state1
