Ingredients and Materials
This sterile dressing typically comprises a soft, absorbent cotton or cellulose pad with a non-adherent contact layer, a breathable non-woven outer cover and a protective polyethylene film or paper wrapper. Materials are chosen for biocompatibility and to reduce skin irritation. Product composition: sterile absorbent core (cotton/cellulose), non-adherent wound contact layer (non-woven), breathable backing and sterile packaging.
How to Use
- Wash hands and wear gloves if available. Clean the wound with an appropriate antiseptic or saline solution and gently dry surrounding skin.
- Open the sterile pack, avoiding contamination of the dressing surface.
- Place the absorbent pad directly over the wound so the non-adherent layer contacts the wound bed.
- Secure dressing with adhesive tape, bandage or conforming wrap. Ensure the dressing is held firmly but not too tight to impair circulation.
- Change dressing when saturated, contaminated or as advised by a healthcare professional. Dispose of used dressings as clinical waste where applicable.
Who It’s For
Ideal for first aid responders, ambulance and emergency personnel, clinics, hospitals, occupational health, sports trainers and households. Suitable for anyone needing a reliable sterile dressing for cuts, abrasions, post-surgical sites, donor sites and other minor to moderate wounds requiring absorbent, non-adherent wound protection.
Caution & Storage
Single-use sterile product — do not re-sterilise or reuse. Do not use if the outer packaging is damaged or the sterile seal is broken. Seek medical attention for deep, heavily bleeding, contaminated or infected wounds. Discontinue use if signs of allergy or irritation occur. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Keep out of reach of children.
