The self-adherent all-in-one bordered foam dressing
Mepilex Border
Mepilex® Border is a versatile all-in-one bordered foam dressing available in a large range of shapes and sizes. You can use it for managing chronic and acute wounds. Plus it’s clinically proven to help prevent pressure ulcers.
The proven five-layer construction includes Safetac®. Safetac technology wound contact layer minimizes patient pain and trauma to the wound and surrounding skin at removal while reducing the risk of maceration.
Benefits of Mepilex Border
- Atraumatic to the wound and surrounding skin on removal
- Does not adhere to a moist wound
- Adheres gently and securely to dry, intact skin
- Maintains a moist wound environment
- Minimizes the risk of maceration
- Designed for ease of use and patient comfort
- Barrier to outside moisture, viruses and bacteria
How Mepilex Border works
Mepilex Border has excellent fluid handling properties because of the following: Safetac technology layer – seals around wound/incision margins
- Absorption layer - ensures quick and effective absorption
- Spreading layer – spreads the exudate into the retention layer
- Retention layer – impedes exudate from being pushed back into the skin; reducing the risk of maceration
- Backing film – highly breathable; moisture and bacteria proof to protect the wound from external contamination
