Product Description:

Mepitel is a transparent perforated and non-absorbent dressing. The open mesh structure allows exudate to pass into an secondary absorbent dressing. This can reduce frequent dressing changes closest to the wound and allows for changing the secondary dressing with minimized disturbance of the wound. The dressing has a Safetac wound contact layer that is a unique adhesive technology. It minimises pain to patient and trauma to wounds and the surrounding skin at dressing removal.

Mepitel consists of:

• A soft silicone wound contact layer (Safetac)
• A transparent and flexible polyamide net with open mesh structure

Areas of Use:

Mepitel is a meshed non-adherent wound contact layer allowing passage of exudate and providing fixation and protection of tissues. Mepitel is designed for a wide range of exuding wounds such as skin tears, skin abrasions, sutured wounds, partial thickness burns, lacerations, partial and full thickness grafts, diabetic foot ulcers, venous and arterial leg ulcers. Mepitel can also be used as a protective layer on non-exuding wounds, blisters, fragile skin and exposed fragile tissues.
