Our Innovating:
proprietary hemostasis technology
A proprietary technology, which consists of a non-woven material impregnated with Kaolin. Kaolin-impregnated gauze supports the body's natural clotting response — FDA-registered Class II medical device for wound packing.
Types of Hemostatic Gauze
Hemostatic gauze has two active types: kaolin hemostatic gauze and chitosan hemostatic gauze. All hemostatic gauze has the same appearance and format: a conformable fabric strip. It looks no different from ordinary gauze — but the active ingredients work in very different ways, and both far outperform standard gauze. Pick the wrong type for your patient profile or kit context and it won't work as well. This is the full comparison:
| Feature | Kaolin | Chitosan | Standard Gauze (Control) |
|---|---|---|---|
| How It Works | Activates Factor XII in the clotting cascade | Attracts red blood cells via positive charge—mechanical seal | Physical tamponade only — no active hemostatic agent |
| Time to Hemostasis | ~3 minutes | ~1–2 minutes | Slowest — relies on manual pressure alone |
| Performance | Limited | Yes—cascade-independent | Poor on severe / arterial bleeding |
| Comfort Level | Very Soft | Hard | Soft |
| Exothermic (Heat)? | No | Mild | No |
| Antimicrobial? | No | Yes | No |
| Animal-Derived? | No | Yes (shellfish) | No |
| TCCC Status | Primary recommendation | Alternative listing | Not a hemostatic agent — wound packing only |
| Typical Brands | Rusun, other | Rusun, Celox, HemCon, ChitoGauze | Generic cotton / rayon gauze |

Kaolin Hemostatic Gauze vs. Gauze
We should know that both kaolin hemostatic dressing and hemostatic gauze have kaolin hemostatic agents in them, but they are designed for different wound types. If we carry the wrong types of hemostatic gauze, it will reduce the hemostatic effect and will waste the emergency response time. So we should understand the difference; it can save lives in critical situations. So here is the difference below:
| Item | Hemostatic Gauze | Hemostatic Dressing |
|---|---|---|
| Form | Roll or Z-fold strip (3"–4" wide) | Flat pad, disc, or adhesive sheet |
| Primary Use | Deep wound packing—fills the wound cavity | Surface coverage—placed over wound |
| Ideal Wound | Penetrating, junctional (groin, axilla, neck) | Extremity lacerations, shallow cuts |
| Application | Pack tightly into wound channel; hold pressure | Press flat against the wound, and wrap to secure |
| Depth Control | Excellent—fills dead space | Not designed for depth |
| Training Req. | Yes, it requires a wound-packing technique | Minimal, intuitive application |
| Examples | Combat Gauze, Celox Gauze, ChitoGauze | Israeli Bandage, HemCon Bandage |
The Short Summary
- If there is a deep cavity wound (gunshot, stab, shrapnel): We can use kaolin hemostatic gauze and pack it in.
- If it is a surface laceration or extremity wound: We can use a hemostatic dressing or pressure bandage.
- Complicated wound: We can use dressing to secure and cover and use gauze to pack.
Choosing the Right Hemostatic Gauze
The best kaolin hemostatic gauze is the one that can work for your current situation, level of training, and patient group. You can find your role in the table below and then go straight to the right product based on the recommendation.
| Your Role | What Matters Most | Recommended Types & Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Military/Tactical Medic | CoTCCC compliance, non-exothermic, no animal-derived components, Z-fold for one-handed deployment | Kaolin hemostatic gauze—CoTCCC primary recommendation. Minimum 3" width, 4 yd roll. Verify the current CoTCCC device listing before procurement. |
| EMT / Paramedic / First Responder | FDA clearance, reliability across varied patient profiles, ease of training | Kaolin hemostatic gauze is the default. Switch to chitosan-based if your response area has high anticoagulant patient prevalence. |
| Civilian Building an IFAK | Ease of use, shelf life, compact packaging, value for money | Either kaolin or chitosan with FDA clearance. If you or family members are on blood thinners, choose chitosan. Complete a Stop the Bleed course before carrying. |
| Wilderness/Remote Medicine | Weight, antimicrobial properties, single-handed application, environmental stability | Chitosan-based is preferred—antimicrobial properties reduce infection risk in austere environments far from definitive care. |
| Mass Casualty/Disaster Prep | Bulk procurement, multi-user training, extended shelf life | Kaolin hemostatic gauze in bulk rolls. Standardize on one product type to simplify training and inventory management. |
How to Use Kaolin Hemostatic Gauze Correctly?
We have already learned what kaolin hemostatic gauze is and how to choose it; here we will introduce how to use it correctly. It only works well when applied correctly. No matter how good the product is, shallow packing, not enough pressure, or releasing it too soon makes it much less effective. Now, let's follow the TCCC wound-packing protocol.
- First, expose your wound and confirm it. Take off your clothes. Find the main source of bleeding inside the wound.
- Open the package without making a mess. In one motion, rip or cut the sealed pouch. Don't let dirt and debris get on the gauze.
- Find the deepest place where the blood is coming from. Use a gloved finger to find out where the blood is coming from inside the wound. Don't just pack it up.
- Put the pack directly on the source of the bleeding. Put gauze into the wound, starting at the deepest part. Press down hard with your finger. Layer by layer, fill the whole cavity.
- Put hard, steady pressure on for three full minutes. Use the back of your hand. Don't let go to check; keep the pressure on.
- Use a pressure bandage to hold it in place. After three minutes, wrap the wound tightly. Don't take off the gauze.
- Write it down and pass it on. Make a note of the time of application and the type of agent. Tell the medical team that is getting the report.
Don't Do These Things
- Putting gauze over the wound instead of stuffing it inside.
- Letting go of the pressure before the full 3 minutes.
- Fill the cavity all the way with only part of the roll.
- Taking off the gauze in the field before surgery.
TCCC Reminder: Hemostatic gauze is not a permanent fix; it is a bridge to surgery. Pack, put pressure on, secure, and leave. Every minute counts.
Kaolin Hemostatic Gauze Full Control Kit
Kaolin hemostatic gauze can help with junctional and deep penetrating wounds, but a full hemorrhage control kit needs four parts to work together. If you don't have one of them, you won't be able to respond as well.
The Four-Component System
- Tourniquet—The first thing to do if you have bleeding in your arms or legs. Put it on 2 to 3 inches above the wound. Some examples are CAT and SOFTT-W.
- Kaolin Hemostatic Gauze: for junctional and deep wounds where a tourniquet can't be used. Needs to be packed with gauze.
- Pressure Bandage: Holds the packed gauze in place and covers wounds on the surface. Keeps compression while being moved.
- Chest Seal: wounds that go through the chest (open pneumothorax). Preferred: vented seals.
If you only have kaolin hemostatic gauze in your kit, you won't have a tourniquet for bleeding in your arms or legs or a chest seal for chest injuries. Don't just build one part of the system; build the whole thing.
