Absorbative: Calcium alginate is superior to gauze because the seaweed fibers absorb 20x their weight in wound fluid.
Description
Our calcium alginate dressings are derived from natural seaweed and provide a moist wound-healing environment that enhances the healing process. This dressing is designed to transform into a gel when in contact with wound fluid, and requires a cover dressing such as HBS' bordered or non-bordered foam dressing to secure and protect.
