Our next generation of flexible dressings are designed to stay on and uniquely conform; giving time back to nurses, cost savings back to managers and quality of life back to patients    .

Designed to conform and stay on

Our proprietary Flex Technology creates great conformability and a dressing that is more flexible than compared bordered foam dressings   . A dressing that moves with the patient and stays on even in the shower   . Gives more time back to nurses to focus on care, not unscheduled dressing changes.

Smart exudate management

The five-layer dressing absorbs, channels and traps exudate and allows you to track exudate progress. Keeping exudate away from the wound bed, and preventing re-entry, even under compression   . It has better exudate handling capacity than compared bordered foam dressings and can handle both normal and viscous exudate     .

Reduced pain and trauma

Our proven Safetac^® technology means less pain   and trauma   during dressing changes, and reduced risk of maceration than traditional (adhesive) dressings     .

Areas of use

You can use Mepilex® Border Flex to treat a wide range of exuding chronic and acute wounds such as diabetic foot ulcers, venous leg ulcers, pressure injuries*, skin tears and traumatic wounds. It may also be used as part of a prophylactic therapy to help prevent skin damage, e.g. pressure injuries.

Being available in square, oval and rectangular shapes, it can be used on a wide range of wounds and considered as your ‘go to’ all-in-one dressing.

Easy application

Our proprietary three-part release liner makes it easy to apply Mepilex Border Flex^**      . So you can place your dressings accurately and securely – avoiding wrinkles, rolled edges and re-applications. Which could save time and reduce waste, too.
