3M™ Kerramax Care™ Dressings are a range of super-absorbent dressings that absorb and retain high amounts of wound exudate1*. The unique wicking layer evenly distributes fluid both horizontally and vertically throughout the dressing, utilizing the full absorption capacity. Exudate is locked away, including bacteria2* and MMPs3*, creating an optimal environment for wound healing, helping to transform patient outcomes.
3M™ Kerramax Care™ Gentle Border dressings offer an advanced method of absorbing exudate from wounds utilising Exu-Safe™ technology built into the dressings’ core. This super-absorbent core absorbs and retains moderate to high levels of fluid away from the wound bed protecting delicate wound tissue and surrounding skin whilst helping to reduce the risk of maceration, even under compression. A heat-sealed border prevents leakage whilst a soft, non-woven wound contact layer aids patient comfort.
