Actolind® Hydrocolloid Foam, is absorbent poly- urethane foam dressing with uniformly distributed highly absorbing powder.
The outermost layer is breathable, bacteria-proof, virus-proof and waterproof polyurethane film that protects the wound from external contamination. Upon absorption of exudates, the foam matrix forms a soft gel that allows easy removal of the dressing.
Hydrocolloid layer forms gel upon absorbing wound exudates providing a moist wound environment that supports granulation and epithelialization.
Gel formation prevents the dressing from adhering to wounds and so the dressing can be removed with- out causing pain and without damaging the granula- tion of epithelial tissue
