Biolife is a medical device manufacturer based in Sarasota, Florida, and a wholly owned subsidiary of Merit Medical. The company develops wound care and first aid solutions that use a powder formulation containing potassium ferrate and a hydrophilic polymer to create a protective seal over wounds. Its products include StatSeal, available in powder and disc formats, and WoundSeal, offered in powder form for consumer and occupational health markets. These devices function without relying on the body's clotting cascade, employing a two-step mechanism that desiccates blood to form a physical barrier and then adheres the seal to the wound to stop bleeding and oozing. The seal remains in place during healing and is naturally shed as the wound closes, potentially supporting faster recovery. The company serves healthcare facilities with StatSeal and broader consumer and occupational health users with WoundSeal, positioning itself within the medical equipment manufacturing industry.
