A wound contact non-adherent dressing made from polyester, and mesh coated with soft silicone. Silflex is designed to gently adhere to the skin surrounding a wound and not to the wound bed, minimizing the pain and trauma associated with dressing change. The dressing allows the passage of exudate, helping facilitate dressing changes without having to make physical contact to the wound.
Features

- Large 2mm holes allow for passage of exudate.
- Conforms to the skin’s surface for gentle adherence.
- Atraumatic dressing designed to minimize pain and trauma.
