Mepitel One
Mepitel One
THE EFFECTIVE WOUND CONTACT LAYER
Containing the unique and patented Safetac® adhesive on one side of the dressing, Mepitel One prevents the outer absorbent dressing from sticking to your wound (or the skin around your wound). This makes the dressing changes as pain free as possible and also makes sure that the skin around your wound stays dry and healthy.
Mepitel One can be left in place for up to 14 days, depending on the condition of your wound, which means that only the outer dressing needs replacing during the 14 day period as and when needed.
Areas of use
Mepitel One is a versatile dressing that can be used on many different wounds when used with an outer absorbent dressing. Typical wounds that are treated with Mepitel One are:
- Skin tears
- Skin abrasions, blistering and lacerations
- Surgical wounds
- Partial thickness burns
- Leg and foot ulcers
- Mepitel One can also be used as protective layer on superficial wounds that are not discharging and on areas of skin that is very fragile.
Note: If Mepitel One is used with Epidermolysis Bullosa take extra care during dressing changes as the adhesion level of Mepitel One is slightly higher than that of Mepitel.
Main benefits of Mepitel One
- Minimises pain during dressing changes
- Minimises damage to the wound and the skin around the wound during dressing changes
- Highly transparent meaning that your nurse can see the progression of the wound through the Mepitel One without having to remove it

Allevyn Adhesive
Allevyn Adhesive
ALLEVYN Adhesive – Hydrocellular Dressing ALLEVYN Adhesive provides the advantages of ALLEVYN Hydrocellular dressings in a adhesive format for simple and effective fixation.
Features
- Low allergy adhesive
- Tapered construction with micro-thin edges
- Unique trilaminate structure
- Perforated wound contact layer
- Highly absorbent central hydrocellular layer
- Waterproof outer film layer
- Full range of sizes
Benefits
- Convenient adhesive presentation
The wound contact layer of ALLEVYN Adhesive is coated with a low allergy adhesive which is designed to adhere well to intact skin, but not to wounds. The adhesive is non-irritating. - Highly absorbent
In-vitro studies and clinical experience demonstrate that ALLEVYN Adhesive dressings can stay in place for up to seven days. This capacity results from a combination of properties:
The perforated wound contact layer allows even viscous exudate to pass into the dressing.
The hydrocellular core of the dressing absorbs and holds liquid in its microscopic structure.
The breathable outer surface of the dressing allows excess moisture to evaporate away from the dressing.
The result is the formation of a wound environment, which allows wound closure to progress without the need for frequent dressing changes. - Moist Wound Environment
ALLEVYN Adhesive creates and maintains a moist wound healing environment at the wound surface, helping prevent eschar formation. - Profiled dressing edges
ALLEVYN Adhesive has a profiled cross-section, narrowing to micro-thin edges which helps ensure the dressing remains securely in place and prevents accidental removal by friction between the dressing and clothes and bedding. - Waterproof/Aids in the prevention of bacterial contaminationCushioned comfort
ALLEVYN Adhesive dressings are soft and cushioning, giving excellent patient comfort and protection.

Benefits
Faster, safer, less painful wound healing
OPSITE FLEXIGRID has set the standard in moist wound healing by retaining the natural wound exudate which contains vital nutrients for growing cells, and white blood cells to prevent infection. OPSITE FLEXIGRID provides an environment for safer and less painful wound healing. The high moisture vapour permeability allows excess exudate to evaporate, preventing skin maceration.
Superior film with acrylic adhesive
The OPSITE FLEXIGRID film is highly extensible and conformable, which combined with its high moisture vapour permeability, means the dressing can be left in place for up to 14 days. This minimises interference at the wound site and reduces the amount of nursing time required.
Waterproof
OPSITE FLEXIGRID is impermeable to water and body fluids, protecting the skin underneath and allowing the patient to bathe without changing dressings. It also aids in the prevention of bacterial contamination.
Simple, effective application technique
OPSITE FLEXIGRID provides a simple and effective application system. The flexible carrier enables single handed application allowing the dressing to conform to the contours of the body. Its transparency enables accurate positioning over the wound site.
Adaptable to Awkward Areas
OPSITE FLEXIGRID has been designed to be adaptable for use on all areas of the body. It can be easily cut into strips or shapes for application to awkward areas such as heels, elbows and knees.
Unique Wound Management Grid
OPSITE FLEXIGRID incorporates a unique wound measurement device which allows simple but accurate assessments of the healing process to be made. After tracing the edges of the wound, the FLEXIGRID carrier can be removed and stored in the patient’s notes.
