General Description
Hydrocolloid dressings have a unique design. They contain gel-forming agents (a gelatin or sodium carboxymethylcellulose) held within an adhesive compound, The end product is an advanced wound dressing that resembles an absorbent.
The aim of this type of dressing is to provide a moist healing environment and insulation while using the body’s own moisture and enzymes to keep the wound bed hydrated for proper wound healing. The dressing does this by absorbing wound exudate and forming a gel, and the properties of the gel depend on the agents contained within the compound; one may create a cohesive coagulate, while another might produce a less viscous, waterier gel. These products are generally available with or without adhesive borders and in a wide variety of thicknesses.
Intended Use
Is intended for use on burns, wounds that are emitting liquid as a primary dressing for exuding wounds that acts as a barrier to bacterial penetration, for use on first and second degree burns, surgical wounds, pressure ulcers, dermal ulcers, as well as minor cuts, abrasions, lacerations..

General Description
Foam dressings are designed to meet one of the main goals of wound care: creating a moist environment conducive to wound healing. They’re generally made from semipermeable polyurethane, so they’re non adherent and non-linting and the dressings allow water vapor to enter but keep out bacteria and other contaminants. The outer layer may be waterproof or hydrophobic. Foam dressings are available in various sizes and shapes. Some have adhesive tape, or borders, around the edges for easier application
Intended Use
FOAM dressing can work incredibly well, as well as for injuries that exhibit odors. Foam dressings absorb exudates from the wound’s surface, as protect the affected area from outside invaders such as bacteria and, ideally, create an environment that will support healthy healing, are an effective tool for moist wound healing and are particularly useful in preventing dressing-related trauma, managing exuding wounds, and minimizing dressing discomfort and pain.
Product Features
General Description
Gel Dressing is bacteria and fungi binding dressing covered with gel. It consists of a wound contact layer based gel. Gel Dressing donates moisture, enables a moist wound environment and facilitates autolytic debridement.
Intended Use
Gel Dressing is intended for use in management of clean, contaminated, colonized or infected wounds with dry to low exudate levels, such as traumatic wounds, burns, cavity wounds, fistulas, pressure ulcers, diabetic ulcers and foot and leg ulcers.
