Mepitel^® Ag is an antimicrobial soft wound contact layer with Safetac^® technology. It adheres gently, which minimises trauma to the wound bed and the surrounding skin as well as pain to the patient during dressing removal  .

Mepitel Ag delivers antimicrobial activity within 4 hours and up to 8 days (in vitro)  . The open structure of the dressing allows a good fluid drainage, such as wound exudate, into the secondary absorbent dressing  . Mepitel Ag can be left in place during outer dressing change and may extend wear time while increasing patient comfort (compared to traditional dressings)    .

• Supports undisturbed wound healing   
• Allows exudate to pass vertically into a secondary dressing    
• Inactivates a wide range of wound relevant pathogens (in vitro)    
• Demonstrated ease of application and removal    
• Conforms well to graft sites and difficult-to-dress areas
