Overview
Our Silicone Wound Contact Layer is designed to protect the wound bed by providing undisturbed wound healing for 14 days.
Silicone Wound Contact Layer dressing is a sterile wound dressing consisting of a knitted polyester fabric coated with silicone adhesive on both sides that prevents the dressing from sticking to the wound and reduces pain during dressing changes.
The soft, silicone dressing is indicated for use on nil to heavily exuding chronic and acute wounds, with an appropriate secondary dressing.
Our Silicone Wound Contact Layer dressing can be used in conjunction with negative pressure wound therapy (NPWT) and is suitable for use under compression bandaging.
Silicone Wound Contact Layer is available both as OEM and under our ActivHeal brand. To find out more about the ActivHeal® Silicone Wound Contact Layer range, download resources and view performance data, visit ActivHeal.com
