In the battle against hard-to-heal wounds, there is an invisible enemy, Biofilm. A major barrier to wound healing, it's present in at least 78% of hard-to-heal wounds.¹

Thanks to our breakthrough MORE THAN SILVER™ technology - which contains ionic silver together with a surfactant and a metal chelating agent - our dressing delivers superior^2,3 anti-biofilm performance compared to other silver dressings.

Wound Hygiene

Wound Hygiene is a four-step regime designed to clean and decontaminate a wound and overcome the barriers to healing often caused by the presence of biofilm.

Just as we follow basic hygiene every day by washing our hands, brushing our teeth, and showering, we should apply regular basic hygiene to wounds to keep them clean and remove biofilm. By implementing Wound Hygiene, you can ensure every wound is properly prepared for healing every time.

Not everything needs to be complicated. Keep biofilm-based wound care simple.
