?Breathable Top Film: The outer polyurethane top film switches to become more breathable in the presence of exudate.
It also helps to prevent strikethrough and provides an effective barrier to bacteria and minimises the risk of cross contamination.
Highly Absorbent Foam Core: The hydrocellular foam core is highly absorbent, providing absorption capacity for up to 7 days.
Non-Adherent Wound Contact Layer: The wound contact layer has a low allergy based adhesive, which adheres well to intact skin, will not stick to the wound and has a proven low risk of skin irritation.
The unique triple layer technology effectively manages exudate helping to ensure that the wound is kept at optimum moisture levels to support moist wound healing1.
It does this by:
Transpiring enough fluid to keep the dressing comfortable and conformable.
Retaining enough fluid to keep a healthily moist wound environment.
Absorbing enough fluid to remove unwanted exudate and cellular debris.
ALLEVYN Adhesive is an economically-efficient dressing specifically designed to manage chronic or acute exuding wounds.
The low allergy adhesive helps to keep the dressing securely in place without adhering to the wound.
Easy to apply and remove.
