Buy Mepilex Border Flex Foam Dressing 10x20cm (10 pcs)

The all-in-one dressing conforms well to the body and features unique adhesive properties. The new generation of flexible dressings does not peel off and offers unique conformability: caregivers save time, controllers save costs, and patients gain quality of life. Compared with other tested bordered foam dressings, Mepilex Border Flex offers better conformability due to its unique Flex technology. A dressing that moves with the patient and does not come off even in the shower.

Practical exudate management

The five-layer dressing absorbs, channels, and locks in exudate. This enables monitoring of exudate progression. The layers direct exudate away from the wound bed and prevent backflow into the wound, even under a compression dressing. As a result, this wound dressing provides up to 2.2 times greater exudate absorption compared with other tested bordered foam dressings and absorbs both normal and viscous exudate.

Less pain and wound and skin damage

The proven Safetac technology helps reduce pain and wound and skin damage during dressing changes. It also carries a lower risk of maceration than conventional (adhesive) dressings.
