This sterile dressing is ideal for minor wounds, cuts, grazes, abrasions, lacerations, and post-operative wounds, particularly beneficial for those with sensitive or fragile skin.
Key Features
- Low-Adherent Wound Pad: Designed to minimize adherence, reducing trauma and pain during dressing changes.

Its cushioning property adds comfort and protection to the wound area.
