The self-adhesive silicone border, with low allergy potential, keeps the dressing in place and allows an easy application.
Anatomical fit
Good flexibility and conformability towards various body parts - especially applicaple for the oval shape. The dressings also can be cut to size.
Shower-proof
The highly breathable, water-repellent backing protects the dressing and even makes it possible to take a shower without removing or changing the dressing.
Reliable exudate management
The vertical absorption makes sure exudate is absorbed and kept inside the dressing – even under compression. Superabsorbent stripes additionally support the absorption capacity.
Gentle to wound bed
The skin-friendly, perforated silicone wound contact layer prevents adherence to newly formed tissue, protects wound margins and ensures atraumatic, pain-reduced dressing changes.
