Products Description
Silicone Wound Contact Layer is a thin, flexible, non-absorbent primary wound dressing coated with soft silicone designed to protect the wound bed while allowing exudate to pass through to a secondary absorbent dressing. It adheres gently to the surrounding skin, but not to the moist wound itself, which minimizes pain and trauma during dressing changes.
Single-Side Silicone Wound Contact Layer
Only the side in contact with the wound has a silicone adhesive layer; the outer side is non-adhesive.
Suitable for wounds with moderate to heavy exudate requiring frequent dressing changes. The single-sided design facilitates easy replacement of the outer dressing without disturbing the contact layer.

Double-Side Silicone Wound Contact Layer

It can adhere to the wound bed and surrounding skin, providing integrated fixation, and causes minimal skin damage upon removal, making it suitable for use on mobile body parts.
