Designed to fill deep-cavity wounds while absorbing exudate, this packing rope can absorb up to 20 times its own weight in wound exudate.
The rope insulates the wound bed and promotes a moist healing environment. It forms an absorbent gel-fiber matrix that allows reepithelialization.
Rope is easy to apply, is nonadherent and removes in one piece.
