Great Wound Contact Layer without Sticking: The wound contact layer is an open mesh soft silicone dressing. The perforated structure allows exudate to pass through to the secondary dressing, prevents the next layer of dressing from sticking to the wound which can cause trauma and impair healing. This contact layer is designed for a wide range of exuding wounds, such as skin tears abrasion, diabetic foot ulcer, pressure ulcer, first and second degree burn, surgical wound and traumatic wound.
Gentle and Soft to Fit the Wound Well: Our contact layer wound dressing consists of a a release film and a polyurethane mesh coated with soft silicone on one side. Breathable and gentle, no irritation or harm to the skin. Maintaining a moist and breathable environment promotes wound healing and helps reduce the likelihood of scarring. The silicone contact dressing is very soft and conforms well to the contours of the body, making it more comfortable for the patient to wear.
Porous Design Provides Permeability: Our silicone contact layer for skin tears is porous to allow for drainage. Distributes wound exudate quickly and evenly, allowing exudate to pass through smoothly and be rapidly absorbed by the outer dressing. The wound contact layer seals the wound edges and prevents exudate from penetrating into the surrounding skin, thus minimising the risk of maceration. Good transparency allows instant assessment of healing progress without removing contact layer.
Easy to Apply and Remove: Our transparent non-adhering dressing is easy to use. Simply follow the normal procedure of cleaning the wound and then thoroughly drying the surrounding skin. Remove the release liner and apply the adhesive surface to the wound, with appropriate secondary absorbent dressings and fixation dressings available. Very easy to change and will not irritate your skin when peeling. Gentle and secure with reduced pain on removal without stripping epidermal skin.
Essential for Travelling and Home use: Each soft wound contact layer is individually packaged in a pouch to keep the dressing protected from the elements. Sufficient quantity to meet your usage and replacement needs. The dressing should be changed according to the wound condition, as soon as the absorbent dressing reaches saturation and the silicone wound contact layer dressing comes into contact with the wound. You can keep them in your hiking backpack or in your first aid kit.
