Walker’s Nu-Por Foam Silicone Dressing 5cm x 5cm & 10 x 10cm - Box of 10
Walker’s Nu-Por Foam Silicone Dressings are designed to help manage light to moderately exuding wounds while providing a soft, comfortable cushioning layer over the skin. The absorbent polyurethane foam pad helps absorb exudate and maintain a moist wound environment, which may assist the natural healing process.
The gentle silicone contact layer adheres to dry surrounding skin rather than the moist wound bed, helping minimise discomfort during dressing changes. The flexible waterproof backing helps protect the wound from external moisture while still allowing the skin to breathe.
Suitable for a range of wound care applications where cushioning, absorption and gentle removal are important.
