Relipore Xtreme Adhesive Dressing, Nylon Wound Contact Layer
An adhesive wound dressing with a hexagonal-pored nylon polymer contact layer, letting fluid pass through to the absorbent layer while resisting strike-back. It suits hospitals, wound care clinics and community nursing.
ReliporeXtreme uses an advanced wound contact layer that encourages fluid to pass from the wound surface through to an absorbent layer above it, while helping prevent that fluid from striking back through onto the skin once absorbed. This kind of one-way fluid movement is a common goal in modern wound dressing design, since it helps keep the area around the wound drier while still allowing exudate to be managed effectively by the dressing.
The effect is achieved using hexagonal shaped pores that include a small burr on the underside of the contact layer, a specific structural design intended to control how fluid moves through the material. The layer itself is constructed from a superior nylon polymer, chosen because it resists adherence to the wound site, which helps make dressing changes less painful and reduces the risk of disturbing new tissue growth when the dressing is removed.
Combining a low-adherent contact layer with controlled fluid transfer makes this dressing suited to a range of exuding wounds where both patient comfort and effective fluid management matter. It suits hospitals, wound care clinics and community nursing.
