ActivHeal® Alginate Dressing – 5 × 5 cm Highly Absorbent Wound Care
The ActivHeal® Alginate Dressing (5 × 5 cm) is a compact, highly absorbent seaweed-based dressing ideal for moderate wounds. Designed for healthcare professionals, carers, and NDIS participants, this versatile dressing supports a moist healing environment and helps reduce dressing change frequency.
Why Choose ActivHeal® Alginate?
Made from calcium-sodium alginate fibres, this dressing conforms to wound beds and converts to a soft gel upon contact with exudate, promoting gentle autolytic debridement.
