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.
- 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
- Clean and dry wound and surrounding area thoroughly.
- Cut dressing to size, allowing at least 2 cm margin beyond wound edge.
- Apply silicone side down directly onto wound surface.
- Cover with appropriate absorbent secondary dressing and fixation.
- 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
