Super Dry Absorbent Dressing

Super Dry Absorbent Dressing is a highly absorbent wound dressing designed to manage moderate to heavily exuding wounds. Its superabsorbent core rapidly absorbs and retains wound exudate, helping to maintain a suitable wound environment while protecting the surrounding skin from excessive moisture.

The dressing is soft, conformable and suitable for use as part of a comprehensive wound management programme. It can be used beneath compression therapy where clinically appropriate and is designed to help manage high levels of wound fluid while reducing the frequency of dressing changes where clinically appropriate.
