AQUACEL^® Dressings launched 20 years ago with a breakthrough technology — Hydrofiber^®.

Since then, we’ve never stopped innovating.

Today, the AQUACEL^® family includes a wide range of wound dressings — including AQUACEL^® Ag Extra™, AQUACEL^® Ag+ Extra™, AQUACEL^® Surgical and AQUACEL^® Ag Burn.

Our AQUACEL^® Ag dressings are the #1 anti-microbial dressings today¹, combining the infection-fighting power of ionic silver with the unique capabilities of Hydrofiber^® Technology.
