Activheal Absorbant Fibres

Collection: Activheal Absorbant Fibres

ActivHeal absorbent fibre dressings are designed for wounds with moderate to heavy fluid. This collection includes ActivHeal Alginate in 5 x 5cm, 10 x 10cm, 10 x 20cm and a 2 x 30cm rope, plus ActivHeal Aquafiber in 5 x 5cm, 10 x 10cm, 15 x 15cm and a 2 x 42cm ribbon, and Aquafiber Extra 15 x 15cm, used in hospitals, wound clinics, community nursing and aged care.

Choosing the right fibre dressing

  • Alginate dressings form a soft gel as they absorb fluid.
  • Aquafiber is a gelling fibre dressing; Aquafiber Extra offers extra strength and absorbency.
  • Ropes and ribbons are shaped for packing cavity wounds, under clinical guidance.
  • Fibre dressings need a secondary dressing over the top to hold them in place.

Which secondary dressing should I use?

A foam or island dressing is commonly used; follow your clinician's recommendation.

Can I order in bulk?

Yes, clinics and facilities can order boxes and cartons for delivery Australia-wide.
