Product Overview
Gentell - Gen-13700 - Calcium Alginate Dressing, 6" x 6"
The Gentell Calcium Alginate Dressing (Gen-13700) is a highly absorbent wound care dressing designed to manage moderate to heavily exuding wounds. Made from natural calcium alginate fiber derived from seaweed, it forms a soft gel upon contact with wound fluid, maintaining a moist healing environment while promoting autolytic debridement. The 6" x 6" size provides ample coverage for larger wounds and can be easily cut to fit smaller areas.
Features:
- Made from 100% natural calcium alginate for biocompatibility.
- Highly absorbent, ideal for moderate to heavy exudate.
- Converts to a gel upon fluid contact to support moist wound healing.
- Non-adherent to the wound bed, minimizing trauma during dressing changes.
- Facilitates autolytic debridement for cleaner wound beds.
- Sterile and latex-free for safe use on sensitive skin.
