Adtec Healthcare Secures £12M Funding to Revolutionize Infection Management with Cold Plasma Technology

Adtec Healthcare Limited is thrilled to announce a successful funding round in which the company raised £12,000,000 to further advance its innovative cold plasma antibacterial technology designed to meet high unmet medical needs. As a pioneering UK medical device company, Adtec Healthcare has dedicated itself to developing breakthrough treatments that target chronic infected wounds and surgical site infections—conditions that can often lead to repeated surgeries, amputations, extended hospital stays, and a significant decrease in patient quality of life. The breakthrough SteriPlas plasma technology is at the forefront of this mission, harnessing a unique blend of heat, OH radicals, ions, electrons, photons, UV light, and reactive species of oxygen and nitrogen to achieve a physical antibacterial action. With robust clinical evidence from over 80 peer-reviewed studies, including 8 randomised controlled trials, Adtec Plasma has demonstrated significantly faster and more effective infection management than current state-of-the-art treatments, thereby resulting in reduced healthcare costs. Early adoption by leading wound care and cardiac surgical infection key opinion leaders has further validated the clinical benefits of this paradigm-shifting technology. Designed as a topical antibacterial treatment, SteriPlas is not only effective in treating chronic biofilm wound infections, diabetic foot ulcers, and post-operative infections but also shows promising potential for new indications related to the prevention of implant infections. This funding will be dedicated to expanding commercialization efforts, deepening research collaborations, and advancing additional indications to combat antimicrobial resistance, all while bolstering the company’s global presence with established distributor relationships across Taiwan, the Middle East, and Europe. With a strong management team and roots as a spinout from a leading Japanese semiconductor industrial plasma engineering company, Adtec Healthcare is poised to redefine infection management worldwide.
