ALLEVYN Adhesive 10cm x 10cm is an advanced foam wound dressing from Smith & Nephew, specifically designed to manage chronic and acute exuding wounds. Its unique triple-layer technology maintains optimum moisture levels to support moist wound healing, while the low-allergy adhesive keeps the dressing securely in place without adhering to the wound.
Easy to apply and remove. Conforms to body contours for patient comfort. Absorption capacity for up to 7 days.
Triple Layer Technology
-
Breathable Top Film: The outer polyurethane film becomes more breathable in the presence of exudate, prevents strikethrough, and provides an effective barrier to bacteria — minimising the risk of cross-contamination
-
Highly Absorbent Foam Core: The hydrocellular foam core provides high absorption capacity for up to 7 days, transpiring, retaining, and absorbing fluid to maintain a healthy wound environment
-
Non-Adherent Wound Contact Layer: Low-allergy adhesive adheres well to intact skin, will not stick to the wound, and has a proven low risk of skin irritation
