Two-layer, latex-free compression system for patients who are less tolerant of compression. Delivers continuous restorative compression. Comprises layer 1 (an absorbent zinc-impregnated comfort roll to ease pain and skin irritation) and layer 2 (a cohesive short-stretch bandage). Kit includes nylon stocking for ease of movement under clothes and on bedsheets.
Non-sting medical adhesive remover containing certified health-care grade silicone ingredients.
Composite dressing containing a silicone membrane with a knitted nylon fabric partially embedded in it. A purified porcine collagen is bound to the fabric. Blood and sera clot in the fabric, adhering the dressing to the wound surface until epithelialisation can occur. Also available in glove form for use on burns of the hand.
A multipurpose dressing (MPD) based on SuperCore technology. Includes a non-woven interface layer for soft debridement; a non-sagging airlaid core of natural fibres and sodium polyacrylates; breathable backsheet and laminated edges. Contains superabsorbent materials. Absorbs under pressure (including compression) with no sagging. Can be used to bind microorganisms and MMPs and for soft debridement.
A multipurpose dressing (MPD) for exudate management, soft debridement and reduction of malodour. Utilises SuperCore technology. Contains non-woven interface layers on both sides for soft debridement; a carbon layer; a non-sagging airlaid core of natural fibres and sodium polyacrylates; laminated edges.

Sterile, freeze-dried matrix consisting of collagen and calcium alginate. Collagen is obtained from bovine dermis and consists of collagen types I, III and V. Has haemostyptic properties, supports wound healing, is soft and easy to mould, and has a good absorptive capacity.
A single-use, single-application, acidic, dehydrating gel intended for topical application to debride and remove biofilm and necrosis from the wound surface. Application time is up to 60 seconds, following which the gel needs to be removed from the skin by rinsing with saline or water and rubbing dry with sterile gauze.
Non-sting 100% silicone medical adhesive remover that does not cause skin trauma and evaporates in seconds. Does not leave any film or coating so there is no need to clean the skin before a new application.
Hydro-responsive wound dressing that cleanses, debrides, desloughs and absorbs. Also available in a cavity version for deep wounds.
Non-sting medical adhesive remover containing certified health-care grade silicone ingredients. Available as wipes and aerosol.
No-sting, non-cold, silicone-based medical adhesive remover wipes and aerosol spray.

A hydrophilic polyurethane matrix with a mild, non-toxic wound cleanser, a soothing moisturiser, a superabsorbent and a semi-permeable film backing. Designed to facilitate healing, relieve pain and reduce inflammation. For all wound types, including painful wounds.
A hydrophilic polyurethane matrix with a mild, non-toxic wound cleanser, a soothing moisturiser, a superabsorbent and a semi-permeable film backing. Sixty per cent thicker than PolyMem for more absorbency and longer wear time. Designed to facilitate healing, relieve pain and reduce inflammation. Adhesive and non-adhesive versions available. For all wound types, including painful wounds.
A hydrophilic polyurethane matrix with a mild, non-toxic wound cleanser, a soothing moisturiser, a superabsorbent and a semipermeable film backing with a silicone adhesive border. Designed to facilitate healing, relieve pain and reduce inflammation.
A hydrophilic polyurethane matrix with a mild, non-toxic wound cleanser, a soothing moisturiser, a superabsorbent and a semipermeable film backing. Made from small particle elemental, metallic silver, which is not released into the wound bed. Designed to facilitate healing, relieve pain and reduce inflammation. Adhesive and non-adhesive versions available. For all wound types, including painful wounds.
Hydrophilic, polyurethane matrix with a mild, non-toxic wound cleanser, moisturiser, superabsorbent and semipermeable film backing and silicone adhesive border. Made from small particle elemental, metallic silver, which is not released into the wound bed. Designed to facilitate healing, relieve pain and reduce inflammation.
Format of PolyMem Silver designed for cavity wounds. Can be used in both open and shallow cavities. Does not have film backing. Gently expands to fill the wound cavity, keeping the wound bed clean and moisturised while absorbing excess fluid. For all wound types, including painful wounds.
A hydrophilic polyurethane matrix with a mild, non-toxic wound cleanser, a soothing moisturiser, a superabsorbent and a semi-permeable film backing. Designed to facilitate healing, relieve pain and reduce inflammation. Pre-cut to fit around tube sites and to enhance patient comfort. For all wound types, including painful wounds.
Designed for cavity wounds. Can be used in both open and shallow cavities. Does not have film backing. Gently expands to fill the wound cavity, keeping the wound bed clean and moisturised while absorbing excess fluid. For all wound types, including painful wounds.
Collagen wound dressing that gels on contact with exudate. Supports proliferation and the migration of epidermal cells which assists wound healing.
Bio-cellulose dressing that provides a moist environment and cooling effect which may be perceived as soothing. Can be cut or folded to the shape/size of the wound.
Bio-cellulose dressing impregnated with PHMB. Provides a moist environment and cooling effect which may be perceived as soothing. Can be cut or folded to the wound shape/size.
A sterile, non-adherent, slough-trapping, poly-absorbent fibre dressing with the TLC healing matrix to promote wound healing and enable pain-free dressing changes. The slough trapping fibres (poly-absorbent) bind and trap the slough within the dressing, providing safe and effective desloughing. UrgoClean is available in a pad and a rope format.
A sterile, absorbent dressing made of polyabsorbent fibres and the non-adherent TLC-Ag healing matrix, which is impregnated with silver particles. The TLC-Ag healing matrix promotes wound healing and provides pain-free care and dressing changes. The polyabsorbent fibres in the dressing pad cleanse the wound from slough, exudate and bacteria. The dressing is designed to disrupt and breakdown biofilm, and prevent its reformation.
A polyabsorbent fibre pad containing a protease inhibitor (TLC-NOSF Healing Matrix), polyabsorbent fibres, a superabsorbent layer and a silicone border with waterproof backing. The TLC-NOSF Healing Matrix inhibits matrix metalloproteinases and promotes the formation of new blood vessels. The polyabsorbent fibres bind, trap and retain exudate, slough and debris. NICE 2019 medical technology guidance (MTG42) states that evidence supports the case for adopting UrgoStart dressings to treat diabetic foot ulcers and venous leg ulcers.
A polyabsorbent fibre pad containing a protease inhibitor (TLC-NOSF Healing Matrix) and polyabsorbent fibres. The TLC-NOSF Healing Matrix inhibits excess metalloproteinases and promotes angiogenesis. The polyabsorbent fibres bind, trap and retain exudate, slough and debris. NICE 2019 medical technology guidance (MTG42) states that evidence supports the case for adopting UrgoStart dressings to treat diabetic foot ulcers and venous leg ulcers.
