The technology behind consistent, wearable Blood Flow Restriction.
Haematec™ is Hytro’s proprietary Blood Flow Restriction system, engineered to deliver controlled, repeatable pressure through performance garments. Designed for sport, clinical environments, and everyday training, Haematec™ transforms complex haemodynamic science into a practical, scalable solution.
Haematec™ is designed to apply controlled circumferential pressure to the limb, partially restricting venous return while maintaining arterial inflow. This creates a local physiological environment that amplifies metabolic stress and neuromuscular demand at low external loads.
Key design principles include:
• Even pressure distribution
• Predictable compression behaviour
• Rapid engagement and release
• Integration with garment structure rather than external hardware
By embedding the system within the garment, Haematec™ reduces variability and supports repeatable outcomes session after session.

The Advantages of Haematec™
Consistency
Delivers repeatable pressure profiles across sessions, users, and environments - supporting standardised protocols.
Speed & Simplicity
Fast to apply and remove, enabling use in warm-ups, recovery blocks, rehab sessions, and daily training without disrupting flow.
Safety-led Design
Engineered with controlled engagement and release to support responsible BFR application.
Haematec™ technology FAQs
How is Haematec™ different from inflatable cuffs?
Inflatable cuffs rely on external pumps and pressure calibration, which can slow setup and introduce variability. Haematec™ integrates pressure delivery into the garment itself, improving speed, consistency, and usability.
Is Haematec™ adjustable?
Haematec™ is designed to support controlled compression through garment fit and system design. Users should follow Hytro guidance on sizing and application to ensure appropriate use.
Can Haematec™ be used in both performance and clinical settings?
Yes. Haematec™ was developed for use across performance training, recovery, rehabilitation, and return-to-play environments when applied according to best practice.
Is Haematec™ patented?
Haematec™ represents proprietary Hytro technology developed specifically for wearable BFR applications.
