Biatain Silicone Lite Adhesive Foam
Description
Biatain® Silicone Lite is a thin and ultra flexible foam dressing with gentle silicone adhesive. It can be used on a wide range of exuding wounds and is to be used whenever a thin foam dressing is needed. Biatain® Silicone Lite combines superior absorption and increased mobility.
Superior absorption due to unique 3D foam
When in contact with exudate the 3D foam structure of Biatain® Silicone Lite conforms closely to the wound bed for superior absorption - even under compression (2). The unique 3D foam structure absorbs the exudate vertically and locks the fluid away within its structure, still leaving the wound moist for optimal wound healing conditions. The fluid handling property of Biatain® Silicone ensures control of exudate and minimises the risk of leakage and maceration.
Gentle and secure fit
The silicone adhesive layer provides a secure fit to keep the dressing in place while ensuring minimal pain upon removal (1,3).
Intuitive use
Biatain® Silicone Lite has a 3-piece non-touch opening for an easy and aseptic application.
Increased mobility
The soft and ultra flexible design of Biatain® Silicone Lite ensures a close fit to the wound and body, and the thin foam pad at skin level makes the product comfortable to wear and suitable for users that need increased mobility.
Product composition
