ProLite™ Mesh

As published studies have shown, not all “polypropylene mesh” or “highly porous” mesh products perform the same. It is also clear that not all meshes “feel” the same, handle the same and most important, do not deliver the same clinical outcome. Only one has been carefully engineered to deliver the now proven performance results, preferred by most surgeons and patients alike. Less pain, enhanced patient comfort, fewer recurrences or complications are all desirable characteristics that cannot be achieved with just any prosthetic mesh implant.

Atrium utilizes a unique knit construction whereby its monofilaments are aligned in parallell spaced angles, to maximize material flexibility in two dimensions. No bulky "rails" of compacted or flattened filaments, just a smooth and very uniform open architecture. Next we developed a proprietary material process to help "relax and stabilize" the mesh polymer so it responds to flexing and handling without classic "window shade" memory, commonly found with more traditional, less flexible polypropylene constructions. Surgical mesh and plug innovations evolved from experts in biomaterial science.
