ZeniFIBER is a sterile calcium alginate dressing available in pad or rope form, designed to manage moderate to heavy wound drainage while maintaining a moist wound healing environment. Upon contact with wound exudate, ZeniFIBER transforms into a fibrous gel, promoting natural wound repair and facilitating gentle, painless dressing changes. Its versatility allows use on both deep and shallow wounds, making it suitable for a wide range of acute and chronic wound care needs.
