- Soft silicone foam dressing: Provides cushioning and conformability for better patient comfort and wear.
- Safetac® technology: Utilizes a gentle silicone adhesive layer that adheres securely to peri-wound skin but minimizes pain during removal.
- Highly absorbent core: Effectively absorbs and retains exudate (wound drainage) to maintain a moist wound healing environment.
- Antimicrobial properties: Contains silver particles that help reduce the bacterial burden and fight infection in the wound.
- Border design: The adhesive border helps secure the dressing in place and prevents exudate leakage onto surrounding skin.
- Flex technology (possible): May incorporate a special design for better flexibility, allowing for comfortable wear on areas with movement (e.g., joints).
