About the product
3M™ Kerramax Care™ Dressings are a range of super-absorbent dressings that absorb and retain high amounts of wound exudate¹ *. The unique wicking layer evenly distributes fluid both horizontally and vertically throughout the dressing, utilizing the full absorption capacity. Exudate is locked away, including bacteria² * and MMPs³ *, creating an optimal environment for wound healing, helping to transform patient outcomes. Its high conformability allows the dressing to be folded to suit a variety of different wounds.
