Mepitel One Wound Contact Layer – 7.5 × 10 cm (Single Unit)

Mepitel One is a sterile silicone wound contact layer featuring Safetac® technology, designed to lie directly on the wound bed without adhering. This gentle, transparent layer enables undisturbed healing—even across fragile skin or exuding wounds—minimizing patient discomfort during dressing changes.

Key Benefits
  • Safetac® silicone adhesion reduces pain and tissue trauma when changing dressings
  • Transparent, mesh-like structure allows wound observation and exudate drainage into secondary dressing
  • Can remain in place up to 14 days to support undisturbed healing
  • Seals wound margins to prevent maceration and protects new skin growth
  • Versatile use: skin tears, burns, graft sites, surgical wounds, ulcers, fragile or radiation‑affected skin
Materials & Features
  • Soft, perforated silicone mesh with Safetac® adhesive layer
  • Non-absorbent contact layer—requires secondary absorbent dressing
  • Sterile, single-use, latex-free and conformable to contours
How to Use
  1. Clean and dry wound and surrounding area thoroughly.
  2. Cut dressing to size, allowing at least 2 cm margin beyond wound edge.
  3. Apply silicone side down directly onto wound surface.
  4. Cover with appropriate absorbent secondary dressing and fixation.
  5. Leave in place for up to 14 days or until exudate compromise—without disturbance.
Who It’s For
  • Clinicians managing skin tears, burns, ulcers, surgical or graft wounds
  • Patients with fragile or intact skin prone to breakdown
  • Settings requiring atraumatic dressing changes—hospitals, clinics, home care
  • Use in conjunction with compression or negative-pressure wound therapy
Caution & Storage
  • Single-use sterile product—do not reuse or re-sterilize.
  • Check for signs of infection before applying; consult healthcare provider if needed.
  • Store in a cool, dry place away from direct heat or sunlight.
  • Discard if packaging is damaged or expired.
