Mepitel® Safetac Contact Layer at Medisa Australia
Medisa Australia supplies Mepitel, a trusted wound contact layer from Mölnlycke designed to help protect delicate wound beds while supporting atraumatic dressing changes. Using Safetac technology, Mepitel is commonly selected when gentle adherence and patient comfort are priorities.
Mepitel features an open mesh design that allows exudate to pass through to a secondary absorbent dressing, helping clinicians maintain an effective dressing system while minimising disruption during changes.
Why Choose Mepitel?
Safetac Technology Low Trauma RemovalDesigned to reduce pain and trauma during dressing removal while adhering gently to surrounding skin rather than sticking to the moist wound bed.
Transparent Mesh Structure
