• An hydrocolloid wound dressing that maintains an optimal moist wound environment which has been shown to enhance healing
• For low to moderate draining wounds
• The inner layer of hydrocolloid adhesive absorbs exudate providing higher absorbency than the leading hydrocolloid in the first 48 hours
• Proven up to 7 day wear time
• Smooth outer surface helps reduce the risk of shear and friction
• Dressing adhesive adheres to skin in the presence of moisture
• Breathable outer film layer provides consistently high rate of moisture vapor transmission
• Water-resistant film border adheres firmly
• Film border on oval and sacral dressings eliminates the need for tape and makes dressing application easier
